I assume that you put your webapp's context in server.xml, something like

<Context path="/myapp" docBase="myapp"
    debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="false">

<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
   prefix="myapp_log." suffix=".txt"
   timestamp="true"/>

<Resource name="mail/Session" auth="Container" type="javax.mail.Session"/>

<ResourceParams name="mail/Session">
 <parameter>
   <name>mail.smtp.host</name>
   <value>exchange.myhost.com</value>
 </parameter>
</ResourceParams>

</Context>

Before I use Tomcat Manager to deploy myapp, I stored this context in an XML
file called myapp.xml, drop it off $CATALINA_HOME/webapps and copy my app
files to $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/myapp. With Tomcat Manager, I have to use
context.xml to let the manager extract it from myapp.war.
