Hi,
The bellow link will help you to send mail using java.Here.
You must have Properties, Session, MimeMessage, BodyPart, MultiPart and Transport class. We need a host name, smpt, from address, to address, body text and a subject.

Regards,
Vinoth.

That isn't a good idea. It's designed to be a web application server. If you have Websphere and need to send e-mail, it's extremely likely that you already have an e-mail (SMTP) server available.

All of those are things that we can't tell you. If you go to the network administrators in your company, they should be able to tell you the address of your company's SMTP server and how to authenticate to it.
