public class SMTPAppender
extends org.apache.log4j.net.SMTPAppender

This class is an extention upon the regular SMTPAppender. It uses the EvaluatorClass to accumulate events until the buffer is full and then sends them in bulk. Furthermore is hooks into the JVM's shutdown notification to be able to flush the remaining events (buffer is not full) upon shutdown.
