Pop is for reading mail. SMTP is for sending mail. They are not
interchangible

Jim,
thank you very much Sir. i guess finally i've understood everything u're
trying to tell me.
I have a few things though i'd like to clear out. For sending mails, i can
use a POP3 account as well, instead of an SMTP one?
Now if that is the case, how do i insert it into my code....
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.jspinsider.com");
This is the code that connects to the SMTP server. If i replace this with
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "mypop3.com");
but what do i do with "mail.smtp.host" and where & how do i put in the
username & password that is needed to access my POP3 account. In fact, for
that matter, even if i do have an SMTP account, how do give the user/pwd?
There is another line of code that mentions SMTP :
transport = sendMailSession.getTransport("smtp");
transport.send(newMessage);
What will i have to change in this "smtp" in order for my POP3 account to
function?
I'm sorry for constant questions. I'm new to both JSP and Mail servers.
Thanks a lot,
Cheers & Glory,
SupremeBeing
