Java Sending Email - failed

[marlajee Borstone]

Hi,
I am trying to send mail from my Java program.
I have disabled the firewall for this even though I get the Authentication failed error.
Can some one please look into the code and suggest what is the thing missing here or doing what mistake in this code...

import java.util.Properties;

import javax.mail.Authenticator;
import javax.mail.Message;
import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication;
import javax.mail.Session;
import javax.mail.Transport;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

public class SendMailTLS {
 
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		String host = "smtp.gmail.com";
		int port = 587;
		String username = "[e-mail]";
		String password = "aaaaaa";
 
		Properties props = new Properties();
		props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
		props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
 
		Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
 
		try {
 
			Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
			message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("[e-mail]"));
			message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,InternetAddress.parse("[e-mail]"));
			message.setSubject("Testing Subject");
			message.setText("Hi this mail is from Java Programm.");
 
			Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
			transport.connect(host, port, username, password);
 
			Transport.send(message);
 
			System.out.println("Done");
 
		} catch (MessagingException e) {
			throw new RuntimeException(e);
		}

   }
}

any pointer to the solution if anyone have already used this code, would be highly apprecitated.

import org.apache.commons.mail.SimpleEmail;

		Email email = new SimpleEmail();
		email.setHostName("smtp.googlemail.com");  // 
		email.setSmtpPort(465);                               //
		email.setAuthenticator(new DefaultAuthenticator("[e-mail]",
				"mypassword"));
		email.setSSL(true);

If it help. It works as of this morning when sending email using google SMTP provider. So check your code with it. Good luck.

Hi Paul,
It worked perfectly. Thanks a million sir.
I am attaching the complete code here which I have executed for reference :

import org.apache.commons.mail.DefaultAuthenticator;
import org.apache.commons.mail.Email;
import org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException;
import org.apache.commons.mail.SimpleEmail;

public class SendMails {
 
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		 Email email = new SimpleEmail();  
		 email.setHostName("smtp.googlemail.com");  
		 email.setSmtpPort(465);    
		 email.setAuthenticator(new DefaultAuthenticator("[e-mail]", "pwd"));  
		 email.setSSL(true);  
		 
		 try {
			email.setFrom( "[e-mail]@gmail.com");
			 email.setSubject("TestMail from JAVA");
			 email.setMsg("This is a test mail ... :-)");
			 email.addTo("[e-mail]");
			 email.send();
		} catch (EmailException e1) {
			e1.printStackTrace();
		}	
	 
	}
}
