I am working on a project where a java program records the changes made to the text file, writes it to other log file and sends it via email. The problem I am facing is the while loop used for monitoring changes has no break.
If I put the code of mailing inside while loop the mail goes in infinite loop.
If I put the code outside while loop, main can't reach there because while is in infinite loop. I need a break condition and I cant figure it out. Can anyone help?
import java.util.Properties;
import java.io.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import javax.activation.*;
public class LogMonitor {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
FileReader fr = new FileReader("D:/test.txt");
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fr);
while (true) {
String line = br.readLine();
if (line == null)
{
Thread.sleep(1*1000);
} else
{
byte[] y = line.getBytes();
File g = new File("D:/abc.txt");
try (OutputStream f = new FileOutputStream(g,true))
{
f.write( y );
}
}
String to="abcde#gmail.com";//change accordingly
final String user="vwxyz#gmail.com";//change accordingly
final String password="xxxxxxx";//change accordingly
// final String d_port = "465";
//1) get the session object
// java.security.Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", "465");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.class",
"javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "465");
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props,
new javax.mail.Authenticator()
{
#Override
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication()
{
return new PasswordAuthentication(user,password);
}
});
//2) compose message
try{
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(user));
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,new InternetAddress(to));
message.setSubject("Message Alert! Changes made to your file");
//3) create MimeBodyPart object and set your message text
BodyPart messageBodyPart1 = new MimeBodyPart();
messageBodyPart1.setText("This is message body");
//4) create new MimeBodyPart object and set DataHandler object to this object
MimeBodyPart messageBodyPart2 = new MimeBodyPart();
String filename = "D://abc.txt";//change accordingly
DataSource source = new FileDataSource(filename);
messageBodyPart2.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));
messageBodyPart2.setFileName(filename);
//5) create Multipart object and add MimeBodyPart objects to this object
Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart1);
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart2);
//6) set the multiplart object to the message object
message.setContent(multipart );
//7) send message
Transport.send(message);
System.out.println("message sent....");
}catch (MessagingException ex) {
System.out.println(ex);
}
}
}}
First Move Sending email ail block to seperate method.
I just cut and pasted your code ..
public static void sendEmail() {
String to = "abcde#gmail.com";// change accordingly
final String user = "vwxyz#gmail.com";// change accordingly
final String password = "xxxxxxx";// change accordingly
// final String d_port = "465";
// 1) get the session object
// java.security.Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", "465");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.class", "javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "465");
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
#Override
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication(user, password);
}
});
// 2) compose message
try {
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(user));
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));
message.setSubject("Message Alert! Changes made to your file");
// 3) create MimeBodyPart object and set your message text
BodyPart messageBodyPart1 = new MimeBodyPart();
messageBodyPart1.setText("This is message body");
// 4) create new MimeBodyPart object and set DataHandler object to this object
MimeBodyPart messageBodyPart2 = new MimeBodyPart();
String filename = "D://abc.txt";// change accordingly
DataSource source = new FileDataSource(filename);
messageBodyPart2.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));
messageBodyPart2.setFileName(filename);
// 5) create Multipart object and add MimeBodyPart objects to this object
Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart1);
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart2);
// 6) set the multiplart object to the message object
message.setContent(multipart);
// 7) send message
Transport.send(message);
System.out.println("message sent....");
}
catch (MessagingException ex) {
System.out.println(ex);
}
}
Then add boolean to mark changes in main like..
Note isFileChanged used to send email the changes captured.
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
FileReader fr = new FileReader("D:/test.txt");
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fr);
boolean isFileChanged = false;
while (true) {
String line = br.readLine();
if (line == null) {
if (isFileChanged){
isFileChanged = false;
sendEmail();
}
Thread.sleep(1 * 1000);
}
else {
isFileChanged = true;
byte[] y = line.getBytes();
File g = new File("D:/abc.txt");
try (OutputStream f = new FileOutputStream(g, true)) {
f.write(y);
}
}
}
}
I am trying to send an email. When I send it without an attachment, it sends the email correctly. If I try to attach something, then it doesn't work.

If I change the the setContent to text/plain, I get:

If I change the setContent to multipart/mixed, I get:
javax.mail.MessagingException: MIME part of type "multipart/mixed" contains object of type javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage instead of MimeMultipart
Do you have any idea how I can fix this? Thanks.
Remove
message.setText(mensagem);
Change
messageBodyPart.setContent(message, "multipart/mixed");
to
messageBodyPart.setText(mensagem);
and move it and the following line above the "for" loop.
Also, see this JavaMail FAQ entry of common mistakes.

There is possibility that Some mail servers automatically append the domain name to the user name when client logging but some server will not, hence fail the authentication.

Is it possible to send an email from my Java application using a GMail account? I have configured my company mail server with Java app to send email, but that's not going to cut it when I distribute the application. Answers with any of using Hotmail, Yahoo or GMail are acceptable.
First download the JavaMail API and make sure the relevant jar files are in your classpath.
Here's a full working example using GMail.
import java.util.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
public class Main {
private static String USER_NAME = "*****"; // GMail user name (just the part before "#gmail.com")
private static String PASSWORD = "********"; // GMail password
private static String RECIPIENT = "lizard.bill#myschool.edu";
public static void main(String[] args) {
String from = USER_NAME;
String pass = PASSWORD;
String[] to = { RECIPIENT }; // list of recipient email addresses
String subject = "Java send mail example";
String body = "Welcome to JavaMail!";
sendFromGMail(from, pass, to, subject, body);
}
private static void sendFromGMail(String from, String pass, String[] to, String subject, String body) {
Properties props = System.getProperties();
String host = "smtp.gmail.com";
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.smtp.user", from);
props.put("mail.smtp.password", pass);
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props);
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
try {
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
InternetAddress[] toAddress = new InternetAddress[to.length];
// To get the array of addresses
for( int i = 0; i < to.length; i++ ) {
toAddress[i] = new InternetAddress(to[i]);
}
for( int i = 0; i < toAddress.length; i++) {
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, toAddress[i]);
}
message.setSubject(subject);
message.setText(body);
Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
transport.connect(host, from, pass);
transport.sendMessage(message, message.getAllRecipients());
transport.close();
}
catch (AddressException ae) {
ae.printStackTrace();
}
catch (MessagingException me) {
me.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Naturally, you'll want to do more in the catch blocks than print the stack trace as I did in the example code above. (Remove the catch blocks to see which method calls from the JavaMail API throw exceptions so you can better see how to properly handle them.)
Thanks to #jodonnel and everyone else who answered. I'm giving him a bounty because his answer led me about 95% of the way to a complete answer.
Something like this (sounds like you just need to change your SMTP server):
String host = "smtp.gmail.com";
String from = "user name";
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.smtp.user", from);
props.put("mail.smtp.password", "asdfgh");
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "587"); // 587 is the port number of yahoo mail
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
InternetAddress[] to_address = new InternetAddress[to.length];
int i = 0;
// To get the array of addresses
while (to[i] != null) {
to_address[i] = new InternetAddress(to[i]);
i++;
}
System.out.println(Message.RecipientType.TO);
i = 0;
while (to_address[i] != null) {
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, to_address[i]);
i++;
}
message.setSubject("sending in a group");
message.setText("Welcome to JavaMail");
// alternately, to send HTML mail:
// message.setContent("<p>Welcome to JavaMail</p>", "text/html");
Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
transport.connect("smtp.mail.yahoo.co.in", "user name", "asdfgh");
transport.sendMessage(message, message.getAllRecipients());
transport.close();
Other people have good answers above, but I wanted to add a note on my experience here. I've found that when using Gmail as an outbound SMTP server for my webapp, Gmail only lets me send ~10 or so messages before responding with an anti-spam response that I have to manually step through to re-enable SMTP access. The emails I was sending were not spam, but were website "welcome" emails when users registered with my system. So, YMMV, and I wouldn't rely on Gmail for a production webapp. If you're sending email on a user's behalf, like an installed desktop app (where the user enters their own Gmail credentials), you may be okay.
Also, if you're using Spring, here's a working config to use Gmail for outbound SMTP:
<bean id="mailSender" class="org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl">
<property name="defaultEncoding" value="UTF-8"/>
<property name="host" value="smtp.gmail.com"/>
<property name="port" value="465"/>
<property name="username" value="${mail.username}"/>
<property name="password" value="${mail.password}"/>
<property name="javaMailProperties">
<value>
mail.debug=true
mail.smtp.auth=true
mail.smtp.socketFactory.class=java.net.SocketFactory
mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback=false
</value>
</property>
</bean>
Even though this question is closed, I'd like to post a counter solution, but now using Simple Java Mail (Open Source JavaMail smtp wrapper):
final Email email = new Email();
String host = "smtp.gmail.com";
Integer port = 587;
String from = "username";
String pass = "password";
String[] to = {"to#gmail.com"};
email.setFromAddress("", from);
email.setSubject("sending in a group");
for( int i=0; i < to.length; i++ ) {
email.addRecipient("", to[i], RecipientType.TO);
}
email.setText("Welcome to JavaMail");
new Mailer(host, port, from, pass).sendMail(email);
// you could also still use your mail session instead
new Mailer(session).sendMail(email);

The posted code solutions may cause problems when you need to set up multiple SMTP sessions anywhere within the same JVM.
The JavaMail FAQ recommends using
Session.getInstance(properties);
instead of
Session.getDefaultInstance(properties);
because the getDefault will only use the properties given the first time it is invoked. All later uses of the default instance will ignore property changes.
See http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/faq-135477.html#getdefaultinstance
Value added:
encoding pitfalls in subject, message and display name
only one magic property is needed for modern java mail library versions
Session.getInstance() recommended over Session.getDefaultInstance()
attachment in the same example
still works after Google turns off less secure apps: Enable 2-factor authentication in your organization -> turn on 2FA -> generate app password.

An easy route would be to have the gmail account configured/enabled for POP3 access. This would allow you to send out via normal SMTP through the gmail servers.
Then you'd just send through smtp.gmail.com (on port 587)

}
public void send() throws MessagingException
{

}
public void addAttachment(String filePath) throws MessagingException

}
private BodyPart getFileBodyPart(String filePath) throws MessagingException
{

return messageBodyPart;
}
private Session getSession()
{
Properties properties = getMailServerProperties();
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties);
return session;
}
private Properties getMailServerProperties()
{
Properties properties = System.getProperties();
properties.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");

properties.put("mail.smtp.password", password);
properties.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");
properties.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
return properties;
}
}
Example usage:
GmailSender sender = new GmailSender();
sender.setSender("myEmailNameWithout#gmail.com", "mypassword");
sender.addRecipient("recipient#somehost.com");
sender.setSubject("The subject");
sender.setBody("The body");
sender.addAttachment("TestFile.txt");
sender.send();
If you want to use outlook with Javamail API then use
smtp-mail.outlook.com
