Try throwing a MessagingException from your init method.

James closes connections.  It does not wait, for example. for existing DATA
commands to complete.  HOWEVER, James 2.2.0RC2 does have changes in the
spooler.  If there is activity in the spooler, James will let each spool
thread complete processing the message it currently has before shutting down
the spooler.  IIRC, that is the only place where we'll hold up a service for
existing processing before doing a shutdown.
