> This not "really" a problem since it is not an error but just a report, but it pollutes log a lot when you are trying to setBaseUrl in an email and code is scanning all webapp.
> I'm attaching a groovy script which produces the above report error (the report error is not really easy to produce in real ofbiz application)
