Email generator

Hi all,

I would like to use a automated email generator (ie we get email to our email id each time we get a reply to a query).

I am badly in need of it.

Sorry for that, thank you

The Java API for sending email is called JavaMail. The http://faq.javaranch.com/java/JavaEnterpriseEditionFaq has some links to introductions and other material about it. Note that you'll need an email server to use it (or use a library like Aspirin that can send email w/o a mail server).

This is the sample code for your request

Use this for sending your emails automatically

try {
SendEmail sendEmail = new SendEmail();
String[] sendEmails = this.getUsersEmails();

String subject = "This is email subject";
String description = "email body message";
String userMail = getLoggedInUser();

sendEmail.postMail(
sendEmails,
subject,
description,
userMail);

} catch (MessagingException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}

//SendEmail.java class method

public void postMail( String recipients[ ], String subject, String message , String from) throws MessagingException
{
boolean debug = false;

//Set the host smtp address
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "email server ip address");

// create some properties and get the default Session
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
session.setDebug(debug);

// create a message
Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);

// set the from and to address
InternetAddress addressFrom = new InternetAddress(from);
msg.setFrom(addressFrom);

InternetAddress[] addressTo = new InternetAddress[recipients.length];
for (int i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++)
{
addressTo[i] = new InternetAddress(recipients[i]);
}
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, addressTo);

// Optional : You can also set your custom headers in the Email if you Want
msg.addHeader("MyHeaderName", "Write here the email header");

// Setting the Subject and Content Type
msg.setSubject(subject);
/*msg.setContent(message, "text/plain");*/

// Create a message part to represent the body text
BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
messageBodyPart.setText(message);

Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
msg.setContent(multipart);
//msg.setContent(message, "text/plain");

Transport.send(msg);
}

Thank you for the reply

"email server ip address"
What is the ip

Thank you in advance

It is the mail server IP.
You have to give the mail server IP address and open the ports for email send.
