Answer 1

you ust to download activation.jar and mail.jar and add them to your build path.
i have used the googlemail smtp server to send mail the code is following:
public void SendMail()
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.user", username);
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.smtp.port", port);
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable","true");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", port);
try{
     Authenticator auth = new SMTPAuthenticator(username,password);
Session session = Session.getInstance(props, auth);
MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setText(text);
msg.setSubject(subject);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(senderEmail));
msg.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(receiver));
Transport.send(msg);
}catch(Exception ex) {
     System.out.println("Error Sending:");
System.out.println(ex.getMessage().toString());
and this the SMTPAuthenticator Class which you will need too.
class SMTPAuthenticator extends javax.mail.Authenticator {
     private String fUser;
     private String fPassword;
     public SMTPAuthenticator(String user, String password) {
     fUser = user;
     fPassword = password;
     public PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
     return new PasswordAuthentication(fUser, fPassword);
     }
