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
