<blockquote>code:

nested exception is:
javax.mail.SendFailedException: Invalid Addresses;
nested exception is:

my code for sending mail is as bellow

<blockquote>code:

---

<pre name="code" class="core">
//Get system properties
Properties props = System.getProperties();

//Setup mail server
props.put("mail.smtp.host",hostName);

//Get session
Session session = Session.getInstance(props);

//Define message
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));
message.setSubject(subject);
message.setText(messageBody);

//Send message
Transport.send(message);
</pre>

It seems like your SMTP server does not allow your machine to send emails to [e-mail]. Contact your network admin to investigate.

I've had this problem as well at my work. I was only allowed to send emails to addresses in the same domain.

thanks for the reply,

but i am also trying to send mail on the same domain.

Just about all mail servers need authentication these days - that's what "access denied" means. You need to pass along account name and password. See here for details.

thanks a lot,

After authentication it's working fine.
