javax.mail.internet.AddressException: Missing local name in string

[Farakh khan]

Hello,

I am sending mails in bulk quantity with JavaMail to our existing and new users but if there is any error in the data like following:

Cp_Email.java javax.mail.internet.AddressException: Missing local name in string ``@lalanisteelusa.com''

Then it stops sending from onward that point. I am looking for advice that if any error happens in sending email then this mail address should be skipped and continue sending

Best regards

Catch your exceptions (preferably as limited as possible; e.g. only catch AddressException) within the loop instead of outside it:

for (all records)
{
    try
    {
        Address address = get address from record
        build and send your message
    }
    catch (AddressException e)
    {
        log and be done with this record
    }
}

Hello,

Thanks for your prompt favorable reply.

Is that correct approach?

Properties props=new Properties();

        props.put("smtp.myDomainName.com","localhost");

	Session   session1  =  Session.getDefaultInstance(props,null);

	Message msg =new MimeMessage(session1);
	msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));

	try  
	{  
      		msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,InternetAddress.parse(to,false));

           	msg.setSubject(subject);

           	msg.setContent(content,"text/html;charset=\"UTF-8\"");      

           	Transport.send(msg);  
	}  
     	catch (AddressException e)  
     	{  
        System.out.println(e);
     	}  

        }

Best regards

Of course you will - the email address shown in your first post is invalid. What Rob showed you -and what you asked about- is how to catch the exception and continue processing. That should now be happening.

[Radovan Vukovic]

You can always validate address (or addresses) before you actual send message

[Paul Okeke]

Also make sure that your have the right exception in your catch
