How to connect to IMAP mail server using java ?

Hello Friends,
I need to include a mailing facility in my application. Now its not the smtp server instead I have to connect to the IMAP server.
Pls provide your valuable suggestions as to how do I go about this ?
What API will I need to download ?? As javamail API does not have IMAP package.
Thank you for your attention.

Error when connecting to IMAP mail server - untrus...

I am using a Nokia N97 with the v21 firmware.
I am connecting to a mail server via IMAP, using the phone's mail client (not mail for exchange). This has previously worked perfectly, however now I cannot update my inbox and view the emails.
When I try to update the inbox, I get a dialogue box that says "Website has sent an untrusted certificate". After choosing "allow permanently", the inbox does not update. The message comes up every time I try to update (even when I've previously chosen "allow permanently".
I can however successfully send emails via the SMTP server using the phone (IMAP for sending is restricted, so have to use SMTP).
Does anyone have any ideas on why this is happening, and how I can solve it? I've also contacted the IT guys for the mail server, as I'm not sure whether the problem lies with the mail server or the phone, or both.

Make sure you are using right security protocol, for IMAP you need to enable TLS/SSL. Go to email settings> Incoming mail > Security.
If a reply has solved your problem click Accept as solution button, doing it will help others know the solution. Thanks.

Connection closed by foreign host.This means the server accepts conection through port 25. is not it?
"Conection refused" usually means one of:
1. There's no IMAP server on that host.
2. The IMAP server only accepts connections on the secure port.
3. There's a firewall preventing you from connecting.So when I use the 25 port explicitly, I am not getting any conection refused exception, so I need not analyze for the solution in the lines of connection refused. am I right ?

How to connect to a FTP server using a proxy in a DMZ with XI file adapter?

Hello,
Want to connect to an ftp server using a proxy in the DMZ. I don't see any standard options in the XI file adapter to use a standard. Is there a workaround?
I already looked at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=57137
But it didn't help me.

U can't use FTP over SSH i.e., SFTP. But u may use FTPS by enabling the SSL layer on J2EE of XI. See this

Connecting to SMTP mail server using user name and password in java

I am trying to send mail using SMTP server in java.
But my SMTP server only allows valid users to send mails. I need a way to pass my user name and password to my SMTP server.
How do I do this ?
Thank you

I think the client is not able to do a HTTP POST
to the WLS server but it can do a HTTP GET.
I dont know why.

Hi,
I deployed a rpc web service using WLS 7.0 SP2 in HP-UX 11 environment.When I
invoke the web service through my browser (IE 6.0) using the web servicesurl,
it brings my service method correctly. From there, if I click the invokebutton
it asks me for a network user name and password under "weblogic" realm???If I
provide the admin user credentials (which I supplied while creating mydomain)
it is not accepting that it keeps popping up this network user passwordwindow
over and over. Not sure which username/password I have to provide here tosee
the result of my service.
If I try to invoke the web service through my client (static) I am gettinga connection
refused exception. I guess either way, I am not able to access my webservice.
In the attached file, I have cut and pasted the client stack trace as wellas
the server log trace from weblogic.
Any ideas would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

How to connect to MS SQL server using JSP?

Hi, i am new to JSP so i would like to know what is the code to create a connection to MS SQL server.
I am using jakarta-tomcat 4 as my server.
sorry for any inconvenient....
pls help me....

This works to start off with but there are more sophisticated/ different ways of doing things,for instance it's best not to access the db via your jsp, rather do this logic in JavaBeans, Servlets or use Struts.Therefore, it's best that you consult with others and find out which is best way to go about creating your web apps.
Here's some code:
In my jsp's I access the bean below , instantiate a statement object and go on from there:
*SOME of the code in the JSP's.
//create bean instance
<jsp:useBean id='dbConn' class='projectsevenhouses.DatabaseConnectionBean ' scope='session' />
//instantiate statement
Statement st = dbConn.getConnection().createStatement();
* JavaBean
package projectsevenhouses;
public class DatabaseConnectionBean implements Serializable {
private Connection conn;
private Statement st;
private String dbURL = "jdbc:odbc:datasource";
private static String driver = "sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver";
/** Creates a new instance of DatabaseConnectionBean */
public DatabaseConnectionBean() {
makeConnection();
public void setDatabaseName(String dbName) {
dbURL = dbName;
private void makeConnection() {
try {
Class.forName(driver);
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(dbURL,"sa","");
} catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println("SQL Cause ->" + e.toString());
} catch (ClassNotFoundException cnf) {
System.out.println("Class Not Found:" + cnf);
public Connection getConnection() {
if (conn == null) {
makeConnection();
return conn;
public void setCloseConnection(boolean close) {
if (close) {
try {
conn.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
conn = null;
Hope it gives u an idea...

How to connect to Window 2003 server using "connect as"

How can I set up Lion to easily connect to specified shares in the windows 2003 server. I want to authenticate as a user other than the one I am logged into on my Macbook? I am setting this up for teachers in a school. The macbook may be used by multiple teachers. Best way (simplest) please.

Hi
Let's pretend the Windows Server has an IP address of 10.10.10.254
Go Menu > Connect to Server > smb://10.10.10.254. When prompted enter the account credentials of a user (username and password) that exists on the Windows Server. Alternatively you could use cifs://10.10.10.254. Either one will do. Assuming no 'silliness' on the Windows Network Administrator's part the share should mount.
For ease of connectivity afterwards you could tick the 'remember password using keychain manager' box. Personally I find keychain manager more trouble than it's worth. However you deal with this as you see fit. If it's multiple users using the same workstation I would not enable the option.
Once mounted you can view the Server Share on the user's Desktop by enabling the option in the Finder. It should appear as a blue-ish drive icon on the Desktop. Add the icon in that User's Login Items in the Accounts Preferences Pane. Think of it a little like the Windows equivalent of "mapping a network drive".
Next time that user logs into their local account and provided the workstation is connected to the same network, the share point should mount.
You could also or alternatively drag the share icon to the right hand side of Dock. Click on it to re-connect to the share after you've disconnected from it.
HTH?

How to deploy EAR on CE server using Java Support Package Manager

Hello,
I am using CE server where I want to deploy EAR file by using JSPM. I run this program in Drive:\usr\sap\CE1\J00\j2ee\JSPM\go.bat
I have also put the EAR file into the inbox folder Drive:\usr\sap\CE1\SYS\EPS\in but still It does not show me any file to proceed further for deployment.
Does any one has idea?
Regards,
NK

Hi,
The Java Support Package Manager is not able to deploy a single .ear file.
If the *.EAR file is placed inside an SCA (Software Component Archive) then JSPM is able to deploy it.
You have to create a .SCA from an .EAR file
SAP note 1223957 contains an attachment (nwpacktool.zip) which can be used to create a .SCA file from the .EAR file.

I can't set up gmail in my iPad 2. Keep on saying ' can't connect with SSL and ask me whether to connect without using SSL, then I press 'yes' and it said again IMAP is not working and tell me to see network connection and incoming mail server.

I can't set up gmail in my iPad 2. Keep on saying ' can't connect with SSL and ask me whether to connect without using SSL, then I press 'yes' and it said again IMAP is not working and tell me to see network connection and incoming mail server. No idea how to do anymore. Already tried to figure out. But not work. Can anyone pls help me?

Nope, doesn't pass verification. I get the spinner for a minute or so, then the alert about setting it up without SSL. Are you suggesting I disable Fetch and Push BEFORE I enter the account details? Because I never get past the account details screen, unless I choose "Set up without SSL" after the warning.

My email account in Mail.app is IMAP, but when I delete emails, they don't delete from other devices connected to the mail server with IMAP. Deleted mail on other devices delete as normal from the server and thus from other devices as normal.

MacBook Pro, late 2011 version. Up to date Mountain Lion.
My email account in the Mail.app is set up as IMAP, but when I delete emails in the Mac Mail App, they are not deleted from the mail clients of the other devices that are connected to the mail server with IMAP. IMAP works perfectly between Windows Outlook 2010, iPad Mail App and Android default mail client. Deleted messages behave correctly, as in delete from one device and the mail is deleted from all devices.
Having just tested in reverse order on the Mac; emails deleted from the email client on Windows, iPad and Android are not deleted in the Mac Mail App. It appears that the account is behaving like POP rather than IMAP.
Any advice on how to have IMAP work correctly on the MacBook Pro Mail.app?
Thank you.

Hi Csound1, thanks. The email host is 1and1.co.uk, however, i am going to fess up and make myself look like a plonker now -
the email account in question was set up in Outlook as POP - stupid, stupid, stupid me, wasted an afternoon on this! I have now changed the Outlook account to IMAP and Mail.app works perfectly - and looks much nicer than Outlook did. Im in the middle of converting from Windows to a Mac, and still finding my way around the Mac
The lesson learned, never assume - always double check! All my other email addresses with 1and1 are all imap, except this one, and it happened to be the first one I set up in the Mail.app. (bows head in disgrace!)
Thank you anyway for attempting to help me!
Cheers

E75 not connecting to corporate (IMAP) mail server

Cannot connect my new E75 to corporate IMAP mail server (Exchange), using SSL/TLS.
I have E71, and this device connects with same settings to corporate email without problems.
The same E75 connects to Gmail perfectly.
The most weird is that it connected once, downloaded three arbitrary emails and that is it, no connection anymore.
I am not using MfE, because I do not like MfE usability, I am using "regular" POP/IMAP version of the email client.
Does anyone have any helpful hints? Thank you!

If one searches the web there are many similar problems being faced on this device (E75) - whether you use GroupWise or Exchange. We have used the IMAP client on all previous Nokia phones upto and including the E71 with total success. That includes accessing the same mail boxes - E71 100% E75 only works with HTML mail - not text or richtext. Nokia representatives have been to our offices and seen the problem - they believe its an incompatibility between the new IMAP client and mail servers - what they don't know - are trying to find out if we can load an older IMAP client -
One would think NOKIA would look into this and let everyone know what the problem is and any solution. This kind of thing without speed communication chases people away from a brand and its hard to get them back.
Nokia please help all the users experiencing problems.

How to connect to a Sql server from Oracle using db link

Hi All,
Does anybody have any idea about how to connect to a sql server from oracle database using db link to syncronize the data? I need to pull the data from Sql server table to Oracle tables and relay messages back to the sql server.
Thank you,
Praveen.

we have 2 products - DG4MSQL and DG4ODBC.
DG4ODBC is for free and requires a 3rd party ODBC driver and it can connect to any 3rd party database as long as you use a suitable ODBC driver
DG4MSQL is more powerfull as it is designed for MS SQL Server databases and it supports many functions it can directly map to SQL Server equivalents - it can also call remote procedures or participtae in distributed transactions. Please be aware DG4MSQL requires a license - it is not for free.
Check out Metalink and you'll find notes how to configure both products.
