Re: sending smtp mail failure

[Mighty Tornado]

Thanks for responding,

there something wrong with my code?
This is my code:

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




public class TimeTravelMailer
{
   public void sendMessage()
   {
       String to = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
       String from = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
       String host = "smtp.google.com";
       String message = "This is a test";

       Properties props = new Properties();

       props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);

       Session session = Session.getInstance(props);

       try
       {
           Transport bus = session.getTransport("smtp");

           bus.connect(host, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "[EMAIL PROTECTED]");

           Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);

           msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));

           InternetAddress[] address = {new InternetAddress(to)};

           msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, address);

           msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.CC,
InternetAddress.parse(to, true));

           msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.BCC,
InternetAddress.parse(to, false));

           msg.setSubject("Test E-Mail through Java");

           msg.setSentDate(new Date());

           msg.setText(message);

           msg.saveChanges();

             bus.sendMessage(msg, address);

             bus.close();
       }
       catch(Exception ex)
       {
           ex.printStackTrace();
       }
   }
}

Easiest way is to setup a normal email program and see what the error
messages are.
If the machine doesnt have core mailing engines installed, it will
probably
tell you.
If you on windows, try Outlook express, detailed messages will probably
point you in right direction.

Code should look something like this


    public boolean prepareConnection(String smtpHost){
        this.smtpHost = smtpHost;
        fSessionInited = true;

    try{
        java.util.Properties properties = System.getProperties();
        properties.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpHost);
        session = Session.getInstance(properties,null);
        } catch(Exception e) {
           fSessionInited = false;
        }

        return fSessionInited;
    }
