I have an web application in which i am sending mail to user. Following is my code.
String host = "smtp.gmail.com";
String pwd = "123";
String from = "sender#gmail.com";
String to = "receiver#gmail.com";
String subject = "Test";
String messageText = "This is demo mail";
int port = 587;
boolean sessionDebug = false;
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable","true");
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.smtp.port", port);
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.required", "true");
java.security.Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
Session mailSession = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
mailSession.setDebug(sessionDebug);
Message msg = new MimeMessage(mailSession);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
InternetAddress[] add = {new InternetAddress(to)};
msg.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, add);
msg.setSubject(subject);
msg.setSentDate(new Date());
msg.setText(messageText); //Actual msg
Transport transport = mailSession.getTransport("smtp");
transport.connect(host, from, pwd);
transport.sendMessage(msg, msg.getAllRecipients());
transport.close();
This code is executed on local but fails on server domain. I have search a lot but that solution didn't work for me.
I tried a lot like replacing transport.connect(host, from, pwd); with transport.connect(host, 587, from, pwd); or 465and also String host="smtp.gmail.com"; with static domain IP. but still not working.
can anyone figure out what i am missing..?
Here is working example.
If this didn't work then there must be a problem with your server..
public static void sendEmail(String host, String port, final String userName, final String password, String recipient, String subject, String message, File attachFile) throws AddressException, MessagingException, UnsupportedEncodingException {
// sets SMTP server properties
try {
logger.info("Sending Email to : " + recipient + " Subject :" + subject);
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
properties.put("mail.smtp.port", port);
properties.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
properties.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
properties.put("mail.user", userName);
properties.put("mail.password", password);
// creates a new session with an authenticator
Authenticator auth = new Authenticator() {
#Override
public PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication(userName, password);
}
};
Session session = Session.getInstance(properties, auth);
// creates a new e-mail message
Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(userName, userName));
if (recipient.contains(";")) {
String[] recipientList = recipient.split(";");
InternetAddress[] recipientAddress = new InternetAddress[recipientList.length];
int counter = 0;
for (String obj: recipientList) {
recipientAddress[counter] = new InternetAddress(obj.trim());
counter++;
}
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, recipientAddress);
} else {
InternetAddress[] recipientAddress = {
new InternetAddress(recipient)
};
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, recipientAddress);
}
msg.setSubject(subject);
msg.setSentDate(new Date());
// creates message part
MimeBodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
messageBodyPart.setContent(message, "text/html");
// creates multi-part
Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
// adds attachments
if (attachFile != null) {
MimeBodyPart attachPart = new MimeBodyPart();
try {
attachPart.attachFile(attachFile);
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
multipart.addBodyPart(attachPart);
}
// sets the multi-part as e-mail's content
msg.setContent(multipart);
// sends the e-mail
Transport.send(msg);
} catch (Exception e) {
logger.error("ERROR In Sending Email :" + e, e);
}
}
I got the below error when sending an email through the below code
javax.mail.AuthenticationFailedException: 535 Incorrect authentication data
What could be the problem in my code .
public class SendMail {
public static boolean sendHTMLMail(final String from, final String password, String senderName, String sub, String msg, String[] to) {
String host = "mail.xxxx.org";
MimeMultipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
MimeBodyPart bodypart = new MimeBodyPart();
Properties p = new Properties();
p.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", host);
p.put("mail.smtp.port", 587);
p.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
try {
Session session = Session.getInstance(p, new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
#Override
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication(from, password);
}
});
Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
MimeMessage mimeMessage = new MimeMessage(session);
mimeMessage.setFrom(new InternetAddress("" + senderName + "<" + from + ">"));
InternetAddress[] toAddress = new InternetAddress[to.length];
for (int i = 0; i < to.length; i++) {
toAddress[i] = new InternetAddress(to[i]);
}
for (InternetAddress toAddres : toAddress) {
mimeMessage.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, toAddres);
}
bodypart.setContent(msg, "text/html; charset=\"utf-8\"");
multipart.addBodyPart(bodypart);
mimeMessage.setSubject(sub);
mimeMessage.setContent(multipart);
transport.connect(host, from, password);
mimeMessage.saveChanges();
Transport.send(mimeMessage);
transport.close();
return true;
} catch (MessagingException me) {
me.printStackTrace();
}
return false;
}
}

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.

This is what I do when i want to send email with attachment, work fine. :)
public class NewClass {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "465"); // smtp port
Authenticator auth = new Authenticator() {
#Override
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication("username-gmail", "password-gmail");
}
};
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, auth);
MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress("username-gmail#gmail.com"));
msg.setSubject("Try attachment gmail");
msg.setRecipient(RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("username-gmail#gmail.com"));
//add atleast simple body
MimeBodyPart body = new MimeBodyPart();
body.setText("Try attachment");
//do attachment
MimeBodyPart attachMent = new MimeBodyPart();
FileDataSource dataSource = new FileDataSource(new File("file-sent.txt"));
attachMent.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(dataSource));
attachMent.setFileName("file-sent.txt");
attachMent.setDisposition(MimeBodyPart.ATTACHMENT);
Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
multipart.addBodyPart(body);
multipart.addBodyPart(attachMent);
msg.setContent(multipart);
Transport.send(msg);
} catch (AddressException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(NewClass.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
} catch (MessagingException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(NewClass.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
}

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)
Hi try this code....

import javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication;
import javax.mail.Session;
import javax.mail.Message;

import javax.mail.internet.AddressException;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;

public class Sample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
final String SMTP_HOST = "smtp.gmail.com";
final String SMTP_PORT = "587";
final String GMAIL_USERNAME = "xxxxxxxxxx#gmail.com";
final String GMAIL_PASSWORD = "xxxxxxxxxx";
System.out.println("Process Started");
Properties prop = System.getProperties();
prop.setProperty("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
prop.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", SMTP_HOST);
prop.setProperty("mail.smtp.user", GMAIL_USERNAME);
prop.setProperty("mail.smtp.password", GMAIL_PASSWORD);
prop.setProperty("mail.smtp.port", SMTP_PORT);
prop.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
System.out.println("Props : " + prop);
Session session = Session.getInstance(prop, new Authenticator() {
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication(GMAIL_USERNAME,
GMAIL_PASSWORD);
}
});
System.out.println("Got Session : " + session);
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
try {
System.out.println("before sending");
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(GMAIL_USERNAME));
message.addRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
InternetAddress.parse(GMAIL_USERNAME));
message.setSubject("My First Email Attempt from Java");
message.setText("Hi, This mail came from Java Application.");
message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
InternetAddress.parse(GMAIL_USERNAME));
Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
System.out.println("Got Transport" + transport);
transport.connect(SMTP_HOST, GMAIL_USERNAME, GMAIL_PASSWORD);
transport.sendMessage(message, message.getAllRecipients());
System.out.println("message Object : " + message);
System.out.println("Email Sent Successfully");

} catch (MessagingException e) {

Here's an easy-to-use class for sending emails with Gmail. You need to have the JavaMail library added to your build path or just use Maven.
import java.util.Properties;
import javax.activation.DataHandler;
import javax.activation.DataSource;
import javax.activation.FileDataSource;
import javax.mail.BodyPart;
import javax.mail.Message;
import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.Multipart;
import javax.mail.Session;
import javax.mail.Transport;
import javax.mail.internet.AddressException;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeBodyPart;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

public class GmailSender
{
private static String protocol = "smtp";
private String username;
private String password;
private Session session;
private Message message;
private Multipart multipart;
public GmailSender()
{
this.multipart = new MimeMultipart();
}
public void setSender(String username, String password)
{
this.username = username;
this.password = password;
this.session = getSession();
this.message = new MimeMessage(session);
}
public void addRecipient(String recipient) throws AddressException, MessagingException
{
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(recipient));
}
public void setSubject(String subject) throws MessagingException
{
message.setSubject(subject);
}
public void setBody(String body) throws MessagingException
{
BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
messageBodyPart.setText(body);
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
message.setContent(multipart);
}
public void send() throws MessagingException
{
Transport transport = session.getTransport(protocol);
transport.connect(username, password);
transport.sendMessage(message, message.getAllRecipients());
transport.close();
}
public void addAttachment(String filePath) throws MessagingException
{
BodyPart messageBodyPart = getFileBodyPart(filePath);
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
message.setContent(multipart);
}
private BodyPart getFileBodyPart(String filePath) throws MessagingException
{
BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
DataSource dataSource = new FileDataSource(filePath);
messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(dataSource));
messageBodyPart.setFileName(filePath);
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.host", protocol + ".gmail.com");
properties.put("mail.smtp.user", username);
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
