[ACCEPTED]-how to send HTML email-jakarta-mail
Accepted answer
Don't upcast your MimeMessage to Message:
MimeMessage simpleMessage = new MimeMessage(mailSession);
Then, when you want 8 to set the message body, either call
simpleMessage.setText(text, "utf-8", "html");
or call
simpleMessage.setContent(text, "text/html; charset=utf-8");
If 7 you'd rather use a charset other than utf-8, substitute 6 it in the appropriate place.
JavaMail has 5 an extra, useless layer of abstraction that 4 often leaves you holding classes like Multipart, Message, and 3 Address, which all have much less functionality 2 than the real subclasses (MimeMultipart, MimeMessage, and InternetAddress) that 1 are actually getting constructed...
Here is my sendEmail java program. It's 2 good to use setContent method of Message 1 class object.
message.setSubject(message_sub);
message.setContent(message_text, "text/html; charset=utf-8");
sendEmail.java
package employee;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;
import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;
import java.util.Properties;
public class SendEmail {
public static void sendEmail(String message_text, String send_to,String message_sub ) throws UnsupportedEncodingException {
final String username = "hello@xyz.com";
final String password = "password";
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.put("mail.smtp.host", "us2.smtp.mailhostbox.com"); //replace your host address.
prop.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");
prop.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
prop.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true"); //TLS
Session session = Session.getInstance(prop,
new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password);
}
});
try {
Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("sender@xyz.com", "Name from which mail has to be sent"));
message.setRecipients(
Message.RecipientType.TO,
InternetAddress.parse(send_to)
);
message.setSubject(message_sub);
message.setContent(message_text, "text/html; charset=utf-8");
Transport.send(message);
System.out.println("Done");
} catch (MessagingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
