How to download attachments from Outlook mail using java without using server settings?

Hi I am trying to use java to download attachment's from the mail which is received on the current date.
But while checking for IMAP or POP3 server details to connect it shown as not available. Can any one tell me how to overcome this issue is there any other way to connect?
I was some what able to connect but now i am getting below error

Problem solved.
I have to change:
new MimeMultipart();
to this:
new MimeMultipart("related");

is VB.NET SmtpClient API limited compared to Java SendMail?

I created a method to send email in VB.NET:
Imports System.Threading
Imports System.Net.Mail
Imports System.ComponentModel
Module Module1
Dim smtpList As New ArrayList
Dim counter = 0
Private Sub smtpClient_SendCompleted(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As AsyncCompletedEventArgs)
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("completed!")
System.Console.WriteLine("completed!")
End Sub
Public Function createSmtp() As SmtpClient
Dim smtp = New SmtpClient()
Dim user = "AKAKAKAKAKAKAKAK"
Dim host = "smtp.mailgun.org"
Dim pass = "akakakakakakakakakakakakakakakakakakakak"
smtp.Host = host
smtp.Port = 587
smtp.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential(user, pass)
smtp.EnableSsl = True
Return smtp
End Function
Public Sub SendEmail(email As String, bodystuff As String, smtp As SmtpClient)
Dim from As New MailAddress("contat#testsitetetete.com", "Info", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8)
Dim [to] As New MailAddress(email)
Dim message As New MailMessage(from, [to])
message.Body = String.Format("The message I want to send is to this <b>contact: {0}{1}</b>", vbCrLf, bodystuff)
message.IsBodyHtml = True
message.BodyEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8
message.Subject = "Test email subject"
message.SubjectEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8
message.Priority = MailPriority.High
' Set the method that is called back when the send operation ends.
AddHandler smtp.SendCompleted, AddressOf smtpClient_SendCompleted
smtp.Send(message)
'smtp.SendMailAsync(message)
counter = counter + 1 ' I know its not thread safe, just to get a counter
System.Console.WriteLine("Counter -> " & counter)
End Sub
Public Sub StartEmailRun()
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("StartEmailRun")
'Dim smtp = createSmtp()
Try
For i = 0 To 8
Dim thread As New Thread(
Sub()
Dim smtp = createSmtp()
SendEmail("someamail#testemail.com", "email test", createSmtp())
End Sub
)
thread.Start()
Next
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.ToString)
End Try
End Sub
Sub Main()
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Starting the email sending...")
ThreadPool.SetMinThreads(100, 100) ' just to make sure no thread pool issue or limitation
createSmtp()
StartEmailRun()
Thread.Sleep(300000) ' make the program alive
End Sub
End Module
and I created this same method in java:
import java.util.Properties;
import javax.mail.Authenticator;

import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.Multipart;
import javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication;

prop.put("mail.smtp.auth", true);
prop.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
prop.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.mailgun.org");
prop.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");
prop.put("mail.smtp.ssl.trust", "smtp.mailgun.org");
Session session = Session.getInstance(prop, new Authenticator() {
#Override
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
String username = "akakakakakakakakakak";
String password = "kajdfkjasfkjasdfksjdfksdajfksdfjsdkfjdskfjkW";
return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password);
}
});
final Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("testacount#test.com"));
message.setRecipients(
Message.RecipientType.TO, InternetAddress.parse("atest#test.com"));
message.setSubject("Mail Subject");
String msg = "This is my first email using JavaMailer";
MimeBodyPart mimeBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
mimeBodyPart.setContent(msg, "text/html");
Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
multipart.addBodyPart(mimeBodyPart);
message.setContent(multipart);
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
{
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
Transport.send(message);
} catch (MessagingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println("sent...");
}
}).start();
}
while(true)
{
Thread.sleep(1000);
}
}
}
I expected the VB.NET code to sent the emails simultanteously, like the java one does.
But the email sent appears to be sequencial. In the java all the emails are sent simultaneosly.
I think there is some limitation on send multiple emails in the VB.Net code.
Is there a way to send multiple emails at the same time in VB.NET???
p.s. not talking about bbc, because every email is different from another.

Attachment file name get's changed when send to IMAP mail box from JAVA mail

I am sending mail in with a excel attachment file through JAVA mail. Whenever i send the email to a IMAP email box it's filename gets changed to Untitled attachment as oppose to name i am passing for other email boxes it works file.
I have contacted my email provided and they suspect it is formatting issue as JAVa mail by default formats in RFC 2231, for IMAP it has to be RFC 2047/2231.
Note: application is deployed on Widfly 9 using JAVA 8.
This is how i call the method:
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream(excel_bytes.length);
baos.write(excel_bytes, 0, excel_bytes.length);
DataSource aAttachment = new ByteArrayDataSource(baos.toByteArray(),"application/vnd.ms-excel");
String to_email = tenant.getEmail();
email.sendRechargeBillEmail(to_email, aAttachment, file_name + ".xlsx",tenant.getCompanyName(), String.valueOf(job.getStartDate()), String.valueOf(job.getEndDate()));
This is the class which does have the email methods:

sendEmail(to_email, attachment, file_name, "noreply#nxt.com", "Billing", "billing", bodyText, subject);
}
public static String addColor(String msg, Color color, String size) {
String hexColor = String.format("#%06X", (0xFFFFFF & color.getRGB()));
String colorMsg = "<FONT size = \" "+ size +"\" COLOR=\"" + hexColor + "\">" + msg + "</FONT>";
return colorMsg;
}
}

If your IMAP server is changing the file name because it doesn't understand RFC 2231, then it really needs to be updated. RFC 2231 is 20 years old.
You can disable the use of RFC 2231 to encode the file name by setting the JavaMail System property mail.mime.encodeparameters to "false".

Display the Email message with html format using in java

The "loginVo.htmlBody(messageBodyPart);" will contain the html formatted designed information, but in mail does not receive it.
