Using JavaMail API to send an email in JAVA

Vinay 06 Aug 2009 API, Email, Java, JavaMail Api Views: 8,347 views
We can send mail through JavaMail Api through java code.I have read somewhere and thought of sharing
with everyone.
For using this code you need to JavaMail Api.
//get mail session
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host","localhost");
Session session = session.getDefaultInstance(props);
// create the messge.
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setSubject("Vinay first Mail");
Message.setText("Vinay mail text ");
//address the message
InternetAddress addfrm = new InternetAddress("vinaycen@gmail.com");
message.setFrom(addfrm);
InternetAddress addto = new InternetAddress("vinaycen@yahoo.com");
message.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,addto);
//send message
Transport.send(message);
Update
Send email in text and html format Text and HTML format

To add to the above not to forget the essentials:
The Java Mail API used here is like a Mail User Agent. In the example above you need the mail
transfer agent that in this example assumes localhost.
Please give your SMTP server address that acts as the MTA, without which it would not work.
Rest looks good.
Cheers,
Rommel.
