Enable Mailing services

[Kaustubh G Sharma]

My task is to initiate a mail system within the organization.The beneficiaries are keyed in by the users.
I don't know anything about it. Please help me out for it.

Thanks

I'd start by putting together a requirements document. Once you have that, you can check which pieces are already in place in your organization, and what's still missing.

To put in more simpler terms, collect a list of requirements that are expected of the "mail system" and then try to figure out which of those requirements are already available in whichever tool (if any) your organization uses.

        String from = "[e-mail]";
        // SUBSTITUTE YOUR ISP'S MAIL SERVER HERE!!!
        String host = "kaustubh";

        // Create properties, get Session
        Properties props = new Properties();

        // If using static Transport.send(),
        // need to specify which host to send it to
        props.put("kaustubh", host);
        // To see what is going on behind the scene
        props.put("mail.debug", "true");
        Session session = Session.getInstance(props);

        try {
            // Instantiatee a message
            Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);

            //Set message attributes
            msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
            InternetAddress[] address = {new InternetAddress(to)};
            msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, address);
            msg.setSubject("Test E-Mail through Java");
            msg.setSentDate(new Date());

            // Set message content
            msg.setText("This is a test of sending a " +
                        "plain text e-mail through Java.\n" +
                        "Here is line 2.");

            //Send the message
            Transport.send(msg);

         }
        catch (MessagingException mex) {
            // Prints all nested (chained) exceptions as well
            mex.printStackTrace();
        }

      
}

[Jagadeeswara Yaramala]

There seems to be many errors in your code.

For a working code example (using Gmail SMTP), please see this thread.
Gmail send (The message posted by pradeep singh).

I tested the code in the above thread and it is working.

HTH

[Kaustubh G Sharma]

your code is not working.... got following exception

  javax.mail.MessagingException: Unknown SMTP host: smtp.gmail.com; 
nested exception is: 
java.net.UnknownHostException: smtp.gmail.com   

[Lester Burnham]

That's not the way to connect to Gmail via JavaMail. See the JavaEnterpriseEditionFaq for a FAQ entry regarding this. Pay particular attention to the details.

[Kaustubh G Sharma]

[Kaustubh G Sharma]

I am really stick with this issue...can someone help me out with this..

[Lester Burnham]

It's been a week, so you must have tried a lot, including the code I pointed you to; what exactly happened when you did that? Post the code you're now using that you think should work.

[Kaustubh G Sharma]

Actually I was concentrating on some other work so not find time on that...But also not get any help from websites and this thread ..I am getting some codes everytime but it never worked always get the exception as I mentioned above...
