To make sending mail program using only JSP, you need to first download mail.jar and activation.jar( download these from sun site) and place them under WEB0INF/lib folder of TOMCAT web server.
you can configure either your smtp sever or if you dont have your own smtp thn you can use others like google,yahoo,rediff etc.
here I am providing code for google smtp(smtp.gmail.com).
CODE :
<% @ page import="java.sql.*"
<% @ page import="java.lang.*"
<% @ page import="java.io.*"
<% @ page import="java.util.*"
<% @ page import="java.sql.Driver"
<% @ page import="javax.mail.*"
<% @ page import="javax.mail.Session"
<% @ page import="javax.mail.internet.*"
<% @ page import="javax.activation.*"
<% @ page import="javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage"
<%
try {
String smtpHost="smtp.gmail.com";
int smtpPort=587;
String from="yourmail@gmail.com";
String to= where you want to send mails;
String subject="Mail subject line";
String content=" Hi, this is mail content";
// Create a mail session
Properties props = new Properties();
props.setProperty("mail.transport.protocol", "smtp");
props.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpHost);
props.put("mail.smtp.port", ""+smtpPort);
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable","true");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true"); //google needs thisauthorization
// Construct the message for recipient
Message msg = new MimeMessage(javax.mail.Session.getInstance(props, new javax.mail.Authenticator() {protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {return new PasswordAuthentication("yourmail@gmail.com","yourpassword");}}));
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
msg.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));
msg.setSubject(subject);
msg.setText(content);
// Send the message
Transport.send(msg);
}
catch(MessagingException msge){
out.println("Mail sending error: "+msge.getMessage());}
catch(Exception e){out.println("exception:"+e.getMessage());
}
That's it.
