Issue with JAVA Mail API

Question

Hi
We have a requirement to create a custom e mail. For the same I am trying to use Java Mail API.I am facing an issue with the following code:
session session1 = session.getInstance(properties, null);
System gives an error Sourced file: inline evaluation of: ``Properties props = new Properties(); session session1 = session.getInstance(prop . . . '' : Typed variable declaration : Class: session not found in namespace
Is there some specific API i need to import for session class. Kindly suggest.
Regards
Shobha

Hi Shobha,
I was also facing the same issue from last couple of weeks and just now i have achieved the working functionality.
Please find below working code and replace values as per your serveru2019s configuration.
import com.sap.odp.api.util.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import javax.activation.*;
import java.io.File;
import java.net.*;
// SUBSTITUTE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESSES HERE!!!
String to =<email address>;
String from =<email address>;
// SUBSTITUTE YOUR ISP'S MAIL SERVER HERE!!!
String host = <smtp host name>;
String user = <smtp user name>;
// Create properties, get Session
// Properties props = new Properties();
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.put("mail.transport.protocol", "smtp");
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.debug", "false");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "false");
props.put("mail.user",user);
props.put("mail.from",from);
Session d_session = Session.getInstance(props,null);//Authenticator object need to be set
Message msg = new MimeMessage(d_session);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
InternetAddress[] address = {new InternetAddress(to)};
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, address);
msg.setSubject("Test E-Mail through Java");
msg.setSentDate(new Date());
msg.setText("This is a test of sending a " +
"plain text e-mail through Java.\n" +
"Here is line 2.");
Transport.send(msg);
