Program to send mail

Posted by Arun Sacheti on October 13, 2000 at 5:15 PM

Here is a sample code

you need the javax.mail package for this.

I am using the yahoo smtp server. You can replace it with any other smtp server.

import java.util.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;

public class MailSend{
public MailSend(){
try{
String smtphost ="smtp.mail.yahoo.com" ;
String from = "sacheti@yahoo.com";
String to = "sarcot@yahoo.com" ;
// start a session
Properties prop = System.getProperties();
prop.put("mail.smtp.host",smtphost);
Session session1 = Session.getInstance(prop,null);
// construct a message
MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session1);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
msg.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,new InternetAddress(to));
msg.setSubject("Example");
msg.setText("from mail program");
// connect to the transport
Transport trans = session1.getTransport("smtp");
trans.connect(smtphost,"userid","password");
// send the message
trans.sendMessage(msg,msg.getAllRecipients());
//smtphost
trans.close();
}catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}// Constructor

public static void main(String[] s){
MailSend ms = new MailSend();
}
}
