I haven't tried this myself, but it seems straight forward - for sending
mail, can you just instantiate and use the underlying java object? It looks
pretty self contained:
String msgBody = "...";
try {
Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress("[email protected]",
"Example.com Admin"));
msg.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,
new InternetAddress("[email protected]",
"Mr. User"));
msg.setSubject("Your Example.com account has been activated");
msg.setText(msgBody);
Transport.send(msg);
} catch (AddressException e) {
// ...
} catch (MessagingException e) {
// ...
}
