Javax.mail.MessagingException: Connection refused: connect on localhost

Hello,
I am using Tomcat5.0.28 for a javamail servlet program. I am giving the hostname as localhost. After entering the input details in my html file, i get the error- "javax.mail.MessagingException: Connection refused: connect; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect " .
can anybody help me regarding in solving error.
Thanks.

First, you're using a very old version of JavaMail. Please upgrade. Some of the properties you're setting aren't supported in that old version.
Second, you don't need the socket factory properties, get rid of them.
Finally, it looks like you're trying to connect on port 143 using SSL. Port 143 is the non-SSL port. That's probably not going to work. Still, it looks like something is refusing to let you connect at all. If you really can telnet from the same machine your program is running on to the same server machine on port 143, then you probably have some sort of firewall that's preventing your program from connecting. Please post the entire debug output if it still fails after correcting the problems above. (Move the setDebug call to before the getStore call.)

I have a two part question:
1. At home I am using a dial-up connection it works when I change the settings to an email account as provided by the local ISP.
I have tried it with both "pop3" and "imap" in
Store store = session.getStore("pop3");
for the company email but it does not work.
Is this a problem with company security? Maybe firewall/proxy error? If so how do I get around it?
2. Also, when I am in the office (LAN used to connect to Internet) I cannot even get a connection to the ISP account - similar problem or different?
Any thoughts and help most appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Mark

It could be that the mail server is not accepting connections from the machine you are on. Have you tried using Outlook Express or the Netscape email client to connect to the server/account from the machine that is getting the failure?

Well, I've never used this API but it seems 100% clear what's wrong. And 5 seconds with Google has revealed that there's a method on that class which looks like it will address the issue.
If you can't even read basic error messages, you should seriously question whether you should be programming.

Check the configuration of /atg/dynamo/service/SMTPEmail component and specify proper values for emailHandlerHostName, emailHandlerPort, username, password. By default emailHandlerHostName is configured to localhost and port is set to 25 which is default for SMTP. If you do not know these you can get these details from your mail administrator who has setup your mail-id. You would also need to specify the username and password if your administrator has not allowed for making anonymous connection to the mail server.

Mail doesn't send - javax.mail.MessagingException: 250

Hello all,
I'm new to JavaMail. I actually started with it last night. I've successfully sent a number of messages, but I randomly get a strange exception for no apparent reason.
If I run the exact same code several times, it will produce this error about every 5 or 6 times:
javax.mail.MessagingException: 250 Requested mail action okay, completed
Does anyone know what might be going on? Thanks in advance for any help you might can give.
Here is the heart of my code:
// Get system properties
Properties props = System.getProperties();
// Setup mail server
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host1);
// Get session
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
session.setDebug(true);
// Define message
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
// Set the from address
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(fromAddress));
// Set the to address
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(toAddress));
// Set the subject
message.setSubject(subject);
// Set the content
message.setContent(content, "text/html");
// Send message
Transport.send(message);
Below is the debugger output: (certain values have been removed for anonymity's sake)
DEBUG: getProvider() returning javax.mail.Provider[TRANSPORT,smtp,com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport,Sun Microsystems, Inc]
DEBUG SMTP: useEhlo true, useAuth false

[email protected]
DEBUG SMTP SENT: DATA
DEBUG SMTP RCVD: 250 Requested mail action okay, completed
DEBUG SMTP SENT: QUIT

But I am getting that code thrown as a MessageException; the message never goes through. If you look at the debugging output compared to a message that went through, the DATA transmission commands are screwed up.
Thanks for your input, though. I think I've gotten around this by trying to resend the message. It looks like that when I get this exception the message is never sent. I have a catch that detects this exception and tries to resend up to 3 times.
Thanks,
floosh

Thanks for all,
HAG.

HAG,
you need to create a session object passing a valid authenticator. In other words,
MyAuthenticator auth = new MyAuthenticator ();
Session session = Session.getInstance(props, auth);where MyAuthenticator is something like
public class MyAuthenticator extends Authenticator{
public PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAutentication(){
return new PasswordAuthentication( "user", "password");
}You obviously need to replace username and password with data valid for your e-mail account.
Hope this helps,
gulfi

Run the code using JavaMail's debug mode to see the conversation between your code and the server.
I don't see the code where you're getting the Session so I can't advise you how to do that, if you don't already know.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

There were some bugs in the old instructions for socket factories. Search this forum for the details.
But, you should just upgrade to JavaMail 1.4.3, which supports properties that better control SSL
connections, as well as a MailSSLSocketFactory that will give you more control without having to
write your own.

Hi,
it seems to me that you must authenticate with your smtp host. In order to do so, try following:
While trying to run a program to sent sms to
mobile(with airtel connection)it shows the Error:

Suddenly getting exception - javax.mail.MessagingException: * BYE System

Hi,
Suddenly over the last week my application keeps throwing exceptions. This didnt happened before, so the code base hasnt changed! The exception I get is below. Tried searching the internet and tried what was suggested, but this hasnt helped.
javax.mail.MessagingException: * BYE System Error c63if10001534wej.179;
nested exception is:

     at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:291)

Just remembered that there are demos with the libraries. I used the msgshow.java example. I changed it so that is just dumped the messages size. I wrapped this in a script so that the msgshow app gets called a 100 times. Anyway I get the same result.
i.e.
done 45 times
Total messages = 444
New messages = 0
done 46 times
Total messages = 444
New messages = 0
done 47 times
Total messages = 445
New messages = 0
done 48 times
Total messages = 445
New messages = 0
done 49 times

Thanks.

Then it's a bug in the AIM IMAP server, please report it.
I guess this deserves a FAQ entry. Here's what I'll add:
Q: I can read messages from my IMAP server with other mail clients,
but even though I can connect to the server using JavaMail, when I use
JavaMail to read some messages it fails. Doesn't that mean there's a bug
in JavaMail?
A: No, not usually. Most other mail clients make very little
use of the rich IMAP protocol. They use the IMAP protocol as little
more than a variant of the POP3 protocol, typically downloading the
entire message to the client and parsing it in the client. This allows
them to avoid all sorts of parsing and protocol bugs in many IMAP
servers, but of course it comes at the cost of being less efficient
because they don't take advantage of the IMAP protocol's ability to
fetch only the parts of the message that are needed. These server bugs
often manifest themselves as the following exception on the client:
javax.mail.MessagingException: Unable to load BODYSTRUCTURE
The best approach when running into server bugs of this sort is to contact
the vendor of the server and get them to fix their product. Contact
[email protected] and we'll help you
pinpoint the problem so that you can report it to the server vendor.
If you can't get a fix from the server vendor, the following technique
will often allow you to work around these server bugs:
    // Get the message object from the folder in the
    // usual way, for example:
    MimeMessage msg = (MimeMessage)folder.getMessage(n);
    // Use the MimeMessage copy constructor to make a copy
    // of the entire message, which will fetch the entire
    // message from the server and parse it on the client:
    MimeMessage cmsg = new MimeMessage(msg);
    // The cmsg object is disconnected from the server so
    // setFlags will have no effect (for example). Use
    // the original msg object for such operations. Use
    // the cmsg object to access the content of the message.

Javax.mail.MessagingException: A5 BAD Command Argument Error. 12;

This error appeared on mailboxes hosted on Exchange 2007. It happens when a folder is searched with 11+ OR terms. It works fine with <= 10 subjectTerm items OR'ed together. The search term does not matter. The mailboxes are migrating from Exchange 2003 where the problem does not occur. I tested 51 OR'ed subject terms against the 2003 mailbox and it works fine. I didn't test beyond 51 terms.
I upgraded to JavaMail 1.4.2 and the problem still exists.
I'm not sure if this is a JavaMail bug or an error with Exchange 2007.

thanks for the help in advance.

I ran into a similar error today. I fixed it by setting up SMTP authentication because my ISP's help pages said that they would allow only SMTP authentication.
Here is what I did:
Transport transport =
mailConnection.getTransport("smtp");
transport.connect(
"hostname", "email", "password");
Transport.send(msg);
I also passed the following property while creating the session:
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
finally turning on debug helped:
session.setDebug(true);
session.setDebugOut(null);
Hope this helps

Sockets: Connection refused: connect

Hello,
I try to create to apps one is server the other client
I inserted the code below.
This is the server code:

Socket s;
s = serverSocket.accept();
boolean b = true;
while (b)
s = serverSocket.accept();
System.out.println("Connection from " + s.getInetAddress().getHostName());
BufferedReader bf = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(s.getInputStream()));
BufferedWriter br = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(s.getOutputStream()));
BufferedReader consoleReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
ObjectOutputStream oo = new ObjectOutputStream(s.getOutputStream());
String str = bf.readLine();
if (str != null)
     System.out.println("Incomming message: " + str);
     String consoleInput = consoleReader.readLine();
     if (consoleInput != null)
        oo.writeObject(consoleInput);

}This is the client:
Socket client = new Socket("localhost",87);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(client.getInputStream()));
boolean b = true;
while (b)
   String str = br.readLine();
   if (str != null)
       System.out.println("receive message: " + str);
       if ( str.equals("Server will stop"))
          b =false;
}The server starts up. But the client gives an java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
Client is only listening to what the server is sending.
The server send what's entered on the console.
Can somebody tell me what I'm doin wrong?
Thanks a lot

Here are the exact files that I used and are running on my machine:
// Client.java
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class Client
     public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
          Socket client = new Socket("localhost",6655);
          BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(client.getInputStream()));
          boolean b = true;
          while (b)
             String str = br.readLine();
          if (str != null)
                 System.out.println("receive message: " + str);
          if ( str.equals("Server will stop"))
                    b =false;
//Server.java
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class Server
     public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
          ServerSocket serverSocket = new ServerSocket(6655);
     System.out.println("Bind done");
          Socket s;
          s = serverSocket.accept();
          boolean b = true;
          while (b)
            System.out.println("Connection from " + s.getInetAddress().getHostName());
            BufferedReader bf = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(s.getInputStream()));
            BufferedWriter br = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(s.getOutputStream()));
            BufferedReader consoleReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
            ObjectOutputStream oo = new ObjectOutputStream(s.getOutputStream());
            String str = bf.readLine();
          if (str != null)
                System.out.println("Incomming message: " + str);
                String consoleInput = consoleReader.readLine();
          if (consoleInput != null)
               oo.writeObject(consoleInput);
               oo.flush();
          else
          if (consoleInput.equals("stop"))
                 oo.writeObject("Server will stop");
                 oo.flush();
                 b = false;
}Then, in one window, start "Server" and another start "Client". It works for me on Windows 2K system.
