Sending Mail in JSP

[swethak]

Hi,


I want to send an mail using JSP.

I have a code like that

<%@ page import="sun.net.smtp.SmtpClient, java.io.*" %>
<%
 String from="eminosoft.sravani@gmail.com";
 String to="eminosoft.sravani@gmail.com";
 try{
     SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("localhost");
     client.from(from);
     client.to(to);
     PrintStream message = client.startMessage();
     message.println("To: " + to);
     message.println("Subject:  Sending email from JSP!");
     message.println("This was sent from a JSP page!");
     message.println();
     message.println("Cool beans! :-)");
     message.println();     
     message.println();
     client.closeServer();
  }
  catch (IOException e){	
     System.out.println("ERROR SENDING EMAIL:"+e);
  }
%>

It runs without any error and also didn't receive the mails .

plz tell that whats the problem in my code.

Do you have a mail server installed on your System?

Mind you,

SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("localhost");

isn't necessary, as "localhost" is the standard value. Just

SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();

will do the same job. But of course, that's your choice.

Also, that library isn't officially supported and might be changed. You may want to use JavaMail instead.
