Just check if you have enabled logging in from "Less Secure Apps" using this link. This setting needs to be enabled for the account from#gmail.com.

Make sure you have to turn on less secure app access from your gmail account settings.
public class Main {
public static void main(String [] args)
{
// Sender's email ID needs to be mentioned
String from = "test#gmail.com";
String pass ="xxxxxxx";
// Recipient's email ID needs to be mentioned.
String to = "test313#gmail.com";
String host = "smtp.gmail.com";
// Get system properties
Properties properties = System.getProperties();
// Setup mail server
properties.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
properties.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
properties.put("mail.smtp.user", from);
properties.put("mail.smtp.password", pass);
properties.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");
properties.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
// Get the default Session object.
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties);
int Vcode=(int)(10000+Math.random()*(20000-10000+1));
try{
// Create a default MimeMessage object.
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
// Set From: header field of the header.
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
// Set To: header field of the header.
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,
new InternetAddress(to));
// Set Subject: header field
message.setSubject("Email Verification");
// Now set the actual message
message.setText("Your verification code for our app is"+Vcode+".\n"+"Enter this code for complete your sign up process");
// Send message
Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
transport.connect(host, from, pass);
transport.sendMessage(message, message.getAllRecipients());
transport.close();
System.out.println("Sent message successfully....");

I am using JavaMail library. Look how it looks:
Configure:
JavaMailSenderImpl mailSender = new JavaMailSenderImpl();
mailSender.setHost(host); // for example smtp.gmail.com
mailSender.setPort(port); // 465
mailSender.setUsername(username); // your email
mailSender.setPassword(password); // your password
Properties properties = mailSender.getJavaMailProperties();
properties.setProperty("mail.transport.protocol", protocol); // smtps
properties.setProperty("mail.debug", debug); // as you wish
properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth", auth); // true
properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", enable); // true
}
Send message:
private void send(String subject, String message) {
SimpleMailMessage mailMessage = new SimpleMailMessage();
mailMessage.setFrom(emailFrom);
mailMessage.setTo(emailTo); // receiver
mailMessage.setSubject(subject);
mailMessage.setText(message);
mailSender.send(mailMessage);
}
Try this.

Session in JavaMail

In the following Code in the session object (PasswordAuthentication ) what username and password we have to provide to send mail ? Sender's username password or receiver's credentials?
I am really confused , I am using java Mail to send mail
public void sendMail(String email,String token)
{
// Recipient's email ID needs to be mentioned.
String to = email;
// Sender's email ID needs to be mentioned
// Assuming you are sending email through relay.jangosmtp.net
String host = "smtp.gmail.com";
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");
// Get the Session object.
Session session = Session.getInstance(props,
new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password);
}
});
try {
// Create a default MimeMessage object.
Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
// Set From: header field of the header.
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("Issme-Customer-Service"));
// Set To: header field of the header.
message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
InternetAddress.parse(to));
message.setSubject("Email Verification Of issme Account");
message.setContent(
"<h2>Email Verification </h2>" +
"<h3> Please goto the following URL to verify your ISSME account\n </h3> " +
token , "text/html; charset=utf-8");
// Send message
Transport.send(message);
System.out.println("Sent message successfully....");
} catch (MessagingException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
You need to send the sender's credentials which gmail's SMTP server will authenticate and then it'll send the email.

Error when sending mail in Java

i have desktop application and i face this error when sending mail javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: smtp.gmail.com, port: 587; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
~code~
String host="smtp.mail.yahoo.com";
Properties props = new Properties();
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.host",host);
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.stmp.user", "abc#yahoo.ca");//User name
//To use TLS
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.password", "mypassword"); //Password
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback", "false");
Session session1 = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, new Authenticator() {
#Override
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
String username = "abc#yahoo.ca";
String password = "mypassword";
return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password);
}
});
MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session1);
String from = "abc#yahoo.ca";
String subject = "Testing...";
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
msg.setRecipient(MimeMessage.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(email));
msg.setSubject(subject);
Transport.send(msg);
YahooMail smtp port is 465 or 587
Add this :-
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "465");
or
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");

connection refused while sending an email using gmail smtp host?

I have below code to send an email to my gmail.
public class Mainclass {
public static void main(String args[]){
String host = "smtp.gmail.com";
String from = "from_address#fdsl.com";
String to = "mymail#gmail.com";

props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.debug", true);
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", true);
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", true);
props.put("username", "mymail#gmail.com");
props.put("password", "mypassword");
// Get session
Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
try {
// Instantiate a message
Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
// Set the FROM message
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
// The recipients can be more than one so we use an array but you can
// use 'new InternetAddress(to)' for only one address.
InternetAddress[] address = {new InternetAddress(to)};
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, address);
// Set the message subject and date we sent it.
msg.setSubject("Email from JavaMail test");
msg.setSentDate(new Date());
// Set message content
msg.setText("This is the text for this simple demo using JavaMail.");
// Send the message
Transport.send(msg);
}
catch (MessagingException mex) {
mex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
But when i run the code i always get below the exception.
javax.mail.AuthenticationFailedException: failed to connect, no password specified?

Am i missing anything here? My password is correct. Please help me.
Thanks!
Have you set the host correctly ? Also, I don't see which ports are you using to connect. Have you set the correct ports? Is TLS the correct auth encryption for gmail ?
Please see the attached config:
'SMTP::TLS',
Host => 'smtp.gmail.com',
Port => 587,
User => 'username#gmail.com',
Password => 'password'

Email is sending but not receiving when use no authentication

I am sending email using
public void sendEmail(String fromEmailAddr, String toEmailAddr,String subject, String emailBody) {
String host = "xxx";
final String user = "user";
final String password = "password";
// Get system properties
Properties properties = new Properties();
// Setup mail server
properties.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
properties.put("mail.smtp.port", "25");
// Get the default Session object.
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties, null);
try{
// Create a default MimeMessage object.
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
// Set From: header field of the header.
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(fromEmailAddr));
// Set To: header field of the header.
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(toEmailAddr));
// Set Subject: header field
message.setSubject(subject);
// Now set the actual message
message.setText(emailBody);
// Send message
Transport.send(message);
System.out.println("Sent message successfully....");
}catch (MessagingException mex) {
mex.printStackTrace();
}
}
When i try to send email using above code then it comes to message Sent message successfully.... but i got no email. On the other hand if i use authentication then i got the email
properties.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
properties.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties,
new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication(user,password);
}
});
Why ? Is it necessary to provide userName and password for host ? Can i send email by just specifying host, no username and password provided ?
Thanks
I guess the port number might be the issue.
Try changing properties.put("mail.smtp.port", "25");
to properties.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");.
Further you can refer this.
It depends on the mail server you're using.
For example, some mail servers will let you send mail to anyone in the same company without authentication, but authentication is needed to send mail outside of the company. In the latter case, if you send the mail without authenticating, the mail server may accept the message and return a "mailer-daemon" failure message, or might just throw the message away.
Also, see this list of common JavaMail mistakes.
