If you don't mind editing a velocity template here's a direct link to a relevant post in JRA-3821. This has been working fine for us on 4.0.2 since March.

You can specify the resolutions per project and/or issue type in atlassian-jira\WEB-INF\classes\jira-application.properties as shown.

You will need to restart JIRA to pick up changes to either file so changing the resolution settings will need a restart each time.

It's a fairly popular feature request - JRA-3821. There are some workarounds there. It's an extensive discussion there.

You can't have resolution per project but what you can do is to limit resolutions appearing on the workflow based on the transition. So you can this facility by using different workflows per project!

You will find more details here.

John is right with this, but you can also use the property on the transition "jira.field.resolution.include", it is a little more intitutive, imho, then trying to exclude. The problem with the exclude as well, is that everytime you add a new resolution type you will need to remember to go in and exclude it from your available resolutions.
