Using JavaMail in Jdev1012

Hi everyone
im new to the Forum >> my first Post :)
i am working on my graduating project a simple elearning system
my questions are :
1) are Jdev ADF - Struts - Jsp + intermedia technologies appropriate and enough to an elearning System ?
2 ) can i use JavaMail API in JDev 1012 ? and how ?
3) can implement a dynamic JAAS Secuirty ( meaning that users regester at run time and thay are added to security files and the container files automatically )?
thats all
thanx .

Hi,
yes. Java Mail is part of the J2EE platform and works the same on all J2EE environments
JAAS does not define a API for user provisioning and management. You have to use the container specific API or the API used by the authentication provider. You can do what you want to do with Oracle OC4J and Oracle Application Server.

Problem Sending mails in a loop using JavaMail API

Hello All,
I am sending emails in a loop(one after the other) using JavaMail API,but the problem is, if the first two,three email addresses in the loop are Valid it sends the Email Properly, but if the Fourth or so is Invalid Address it throws an Exception....
"javax.mail.SendFailedException: Sending failed;"
nested exception is:
javax.mail.SendFailedException: Invalid Addresses;
nested exception is:
javax.mail.SendFailedException: 450 <[email protected]>:Recipient address rejected: Domain not found......
So if i want to send hundereds of emails and if one of the Emails inbetween is Invalid the process Stops at that point and i could not send the other emails in the Loop......
How Could i Trap the exception thrown and handle it in such a way, so that the loops continues ..
Is there something with the SMTP Server....?
The code which i am using is as follows....
<Code>...
try {
InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
Session session = (Session) ic.lookup(JNDINames.MAIL_SESSION);
if (Debug.debuggingOn)
session.setDebug(true);
// construct the message
MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(eMess.getEmailSender()));
String to = "";
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
InternetAddress.parse(to, false));
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.BCC,
InternetAddress.parse(eMess.getEmailReceiver(), false));
msg.setSubject(eMess.getSubject());
msg.setContent(eMess.getHtmlContents(),"text/plain");
msg.saveChanges();
Transport.send(msg);
} catch (Exception e) {
Debug.print("createAndSendMail exception : " + e);
throw new MailerAppException("Failure while sending mail");
</Code>....
Please give me any suggestions regarding it....and guide me accordingly..
Thanks a million in advance...
Regards
Sam

How about something like the code attached here. Be aware it is lifted and edited out of an app we have here so it may require changing to get it to work. If it don't work - don't come asking for help as this is only a rough example of one way of doing it. RTFM - that's how we worked it out!
SH
try {
Transport.send(msg);
// If we get to here then the mail went OK so update all the records in the email as sent
System.out.println("Email sent OK");
catch (MessagingException mex) {
System.out.println("Message error");
Exception ex = mex;
do {
if (ex instanceof SendFailedException) {
if (ex.getMessage().startsWith("Sending failed")) {
// Ignore this message as we want to know the real reason for failure
// If we get an Invalid Address error or a Message partially delivered message process the message
if (ex.getMessage().startsWith("Message partially delivered")
|| ex.getMessage().startsWith("Invalid Addresses")) {
// This message is of interest as we need to process the actual individual addresses
System.out.println(ex.getMessage().substring(0, ex.getMessage().indexOf(";")));
// Now get the addresses from the SendFailedException
SendFailedException sfex = (SendFailedException) ex;
Address[] invalid = sfex.getInvalidAddresses();
if (invalid != null) {
System.out.println("Invalid Addresse(s) found -");
if (invalid.length > 0) {
for (int x = 0; x < invalid.length; x++) {
System.out.println(invalid[x].toString().trim());
Address[] validUnsent = sfex.getValidUnsentAddresses();
if (validUnsent != null) {
System.out.println("Valid Unsent Addresses found -");
if (validUnsent.length > 0) {
for (int x = 0; x < validUnsent.length; x++) {
System.out.println(validUnsent[x].toString().trim());
Address[] validSent = sfex.getValidSentAddresses();
if (validSent != null) {
System.out.println("Valid Sent Addresses found -");
if (validSent.length > 0) {
for (int x = 0; x < validSent.length; x++) {
System.out.println(validSent[x].toString().trim());
if (ex instanceof MessagingException)
ex = ((MessagingException) ex).getNextException();
else {
// This is a general catch all and we should assume that no messages went and should stop
System.out.println(ex.toString());
throw ex;
} while (ex != null);

How to use JavaMail 1.4 with Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4.0.0)

Hi all,
I'd like to know if it's possible and how to use JavaMail 1.4 with Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4.0.0), Windows version.
With the following code, I can see that the mail.jar used by the server is the one included in the jdk installation :
// I'm testing InternetAddress.class because I want to use commons-email-1.2.jar that requires mail.jar 1.4 (or higher) and activation.jar 1.1 (or higher)
// and I know that inside the commons-email-1.2.jar file, I need to call the InternetAddress.validate() method that throws a java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress.validate()V if it is used with mail.jar 1.2.
Class cls = javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress.class;
java.security.ProtectionDomain pDomain = cls.getProtectionDomain();
java.security.CodeSource cSource = pDomain.getCodeSource();
java.net.URL location = cSource.getLocation();
System.out.println(location.toString());
This code returns : file:/C:/oracle/app/jdk/jre/lib/ext/mail.jar and this mail.jar file has an implementation version number: 1.2
- I've tried to include my own mail.jar (1.4.2) and activation.jar (1.1.1) files in the war file that I deploy, but it doesn't work (the server still uses the same mail.jar 1.2)
- I've tried to put the mail.jar (1.4.2) and activation.jar (1.1.1) files in the applib directory of my OC4J instance, but it doesn't work (the server still uses the same mail.jar 1.2)
- I know that a patch exists : I've read the following document: How to Make Libraries such as mail.jar and activation.jar Swappable ? [ID 552432.1]
This article talks about the Patch 6514136, but this patch only applies to : Oracle Containers for J2EE - Version: 10.1.3.3.0
Can you please help me ?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Laurent

I strongly suggest to upgrade to AS 10.1.3 to get this.
Think of future support of AS 9.0.4. You will get not critical patch updates anymore.

Error while using Javamail...pls help me...

when i am using javamail for sending mail , i am getting error like,
C:\jdk1.3\bin\mail>java MailSend

javax.mail.SendFailedException: Sending failed;
nested exception is:
javax.mail.MessagingException:

and i define properties like,
mailProp.put("java", "java");
where , "java" is my system name, and there is also mail server on my system. and my system is connected with proxy server..
when i am trying
mailProp.put("mail.smtp.host", "java");
then i am getting same type of error...
so, what is that ? pls help me to solve my error...

Surely there's more information associated with that MessaginException than
you've included here.
Turn on session debugging and run your program again.

If I try and send file as attachments from the tmp directory, then everything works ok, but if I try to send the same file from any other directory, then it doesn't work. Can anyone help? Is there something wrong with the code, I'm not aware of anything that would make it directory specfic. Permissions are the same on /tmp as the new directory /NRS/Data/SystemX which I'm trying to send the file from now.

well
if u see the end of ur mail it shows the attachment dir there in which u have specified the address..why don't u do a change there or better have some in parameteres in the procedure for it..that would help in choosing the attachment directory on users wish?
hope i am getting the problem right..if not kindly correct me in understanding the problem.
thanX.

Best practice for using javaMail

greetings,
On my website, I am using several forms (embedded in jsp pages) that will email their data to a specified email address. To do this I am using javaMail.
Right now, I am able to embed the following code (code similar to it) in a processor page that is set as the action of the form that will email the data and then redirect the user to the "success" page.
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "localhost");
Session s = Session.getInstance(props,null);
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(s);
InternetAddress from = new InternetAddress("[email protected]");
message.setFrom(from);
InternetAddress to = new InternetAddress("[email protected]");
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, to);
message.setSubject("Test");
message.setText(request.getParameter("message"));
Transport.send(message);
response.sendRedirect("/success.jsp");
I'm positive there is a more efficient way to do this than to duplicate this code with minor tweaks for each form on my site. Is this something that is best put into a class that will accept arguements like "to", "from", "subject", "message", etc? Then I can just call that method from any jsp page that gets the form values? or should this be treated as a servlet that the form itself submits to . . .? or something else that I don't even know of . . .?
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
-d

Hi dpassudetti,
Yes there is a better way of doing it. What u can do is use a Java Bean which will have get/set methods for arguements like "to", "from", "subject", "message" etc.And then have a method sendMessage() and put this code in it :
public boolean sendMessage() {
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "localhost");
Session s = Session.getInstance(props,null);
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(s);
InternetAddress from = new InternetAddress("[email protected]");
message.setFrom(from);
InternetAddress to = new InternetAddress("[email protected]");
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, to);
message.setSubject("Test");
message.setText(request.getParameter("message"));
Transport.send(message);
return true;
And in ur jsp, if redirect it to ur JSP file if it returns true.
hope this helps..

How to bypass proxy when trying to send a mail using javamail smtp

Hi,
I am trying to make a servlet send a mail using javamail smtp protocol on port 25 but i m not able to send getting an exception, i suspect proxy is blocking, so any idea anyone how bypass a proxy.

And if it does turn out that there's a proxy server blocking access to your target SMTP server, the best way to deal with that is to discuss the issue with the person responsible for your network configuration.

Delivery Receipt After Sending Mail Using JavaMail ?

Hi Friends,
I have written an application using JavaMail which would be used to send mail
using my organisation's SMTP Server.I would like to include the following functionality in it.Just as
Microsoft's Outlook has an option to get Delivery Receipt of the mail and Read Receipt of the mail sent
(Provided the email Client supports it) i would like to have a similar option in my application to.I would like to of how i can do it using JavaMail.I heard that basically we need to set some SMTP properties which the Mail Transfer Agent would recognize and send us the Delivery and Read Receipts.But,i am not sure of what those properties.Can anyone help me regarding this ?

You might look into creating a custom header that provides a return reciept to the email address you specify. I'm not 100% sure that all mail servers support this but you might want to look into it as a solution.

catch(Exception ex)
System.out.println("here is error");
ex.printStackTrace();
It compiles fine but showing exceptions at run time.Please help me to remove these exceptions.I am new to this JavaMail and it is my first program of javamail.Please also tell me how to use smtp server.I am using MTNL 's internet connection having smtp.bol.net.in server.
exceptions are:
Here is exception

Did you find the JavaMail FAQ?
You should talk to your ISP to get the details for connecting to your server.
In this case I suspect your server wants you to make the connection on the
secure port. The FAQ has examples of how to do this for GMail and Yahoo
mail, which work similarly. By changing the host name, these same examples
will likely work for you.

Parsing email attachments using Javamail

Hi All,
I'm working on a multimedia application where I have to parse emails using Javamail.
Here is a problem that i'm facing.
When i'm receiving an attachment from icloud.com, i'm not able to get the filename whereas i'm able to get the fileSize and fileContent.
I'm using Part.getFileName() to get the file name. and Part.getFileSize() and Part.getInputStream() to get size and the content.
When i checked the attachment header, I could see the name encoded in ISO-8859-1.
--Boundary_(ID_kS5Ng+OB35IVBfC+scPoMA)
Content-id:[email protected]
Content-type:image/jpeg;
name*1*=utf-8"%20%32%33%30%32%32%30%31%33%37%32%35;
name*2*=%2E%6A%70%67
Content-transfer-encoding:BASE64
Content-disposition:inline;
filename*1*=utf-8"%20%32%33%30%32%32%%30%32%33%37%32%35
filename*2*=%2E%6A%70%67
In both the cases above, Part.getFileName() is returning null.
I set the parameter mail.mime.decodeparameters="true".Still it is not working.
It would be great if someone can suggest a solution for this.
Thanks
Shyama

Just adding to the problem description:
--Boundary_(ID_kzWHPgILjZtH2UtdriatGg)
Content-id: <[email protected]>
Content-type: image/jpeg; name*1*=ISO-8859-1''%32%2E%6A%70%67
Content-transfer-encoding: BASE64
Content-disposition: inline; filename*1*=ISO-8859-1''%32%2E%6A%70%67
This is the header which could see in another mail.

Gettting attachments using JAVAMAIL

Hi,
I am dealing with an application which wants me to go through the mailbox and get the attachments of specific emails. These attachments are of different kinds. The attachments can vary from being rtf document, to Word, html, fo.. documents.. I got this skeleton code from the tutorial but dont know what to fill in..
if (disposition == null) {
// Check if plain
MimeBodyPart mbp = (MimeBodyPart)part;
if (mbp.isMimeType("text/plain")) {
// Handle plain
} else {
// Special non-attachment cases here of
// image/gif, text/html, ...
What is it meant by handling plain? How do i handle html, worf, rtf documents.. Thanks a lot in advance.. Thanks
Abhishek

Try this as a reference. It works PERFECTLY. Ignore the comments.
//If the content is ATTACHMENT
filename = part.getFileName();
if (filename != null) {
filename = filename.trim();
if(filename.equalsIgnoreCase(fileNameDownload.trim())) {
                                        //System.out.println("Downloading DOWN 1");
                                        session_id = this.DL_sessionid;
                                        directory = ATTACHMENTPath + m_user + "_" + session_id + "/";
                                        if(download) {
                                             pushFile(part.getFileName(),part.getInputStream(),resp);

I suggest don't use JavaMail.. It has BUGS on some other email type. If not in POP3 then in IMAP.. Specialy when it receives "Enriched" contents types. Better yet don't use Java. It has lots of Bugs.

Sending fax using javaMail
