XI Alerts from UDF using file adapter.

Question

I need to send alerts from XI message mapping. I have the file ---> file scenario but don't want he stop the process if any failures in the mapping. If I find any failures, I need to catch the those failures and send as alerts/email report. As per the link /people/bhavesh.kantilal/blog/2006/07/25/triggering-xi-alerts-from-a-user-defined-function,  I am not sure whether  I can use LookupService for file adapter or not. Can anyone give me some idea on how to send the alerts from UDF using he file adapter ?

Try this...
public String Mail_Test(String input,Container container){
      // Recipient's email ID needs to be mentioned.
      String to = "<Recipient mail ID>";
        // Sender's email ID needs to be mentioned
      String from = "<Sender mail ID>";
       // Assuming you are sending email from localhost
       String host = "<Hostname of the SMTP server>";
       // Get system properties
       Properties properties = System.getProperties();
      // Setup mail server
      properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", host);
      // Get the default Session object.
      Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties);
       try{
             // Create a default MimeMessage object.
            MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
             // Set From: header field of the header.
             message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
             // Set To: header field of the header.
             message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,new InternetAddress(to));
             // Set Subject: header field
             message.setSubject("Check the problem dude...");
             // Now set the actual message
             message.setText("You did blunder correct that...");
             // Send message
             Transport.send(message);
             System.out.println("Sent message successfully....");
      catch (MessagingException mex) {
            mex.printStackTrace();
            throw new RuntimeException(mex.getMessage());
      return input;
