RE: Tomcat configuring for email

2003-06-09 Thread Phillip Qin
Tomcat has this nice feature called Resource mail/Session. Without this
feature, in your code, you get a mail session by:

Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "mysmtphost");
Session mailsession = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);

With Tomcat's jndi lookup, you can get session by:

Context initCtx = new InitialContext();
Context envCtx = (Context) initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env");
Session session = (Session) envCtx.lookup("mail/Session");

But you still need to setup the sending params, such as

Message m = new MimeMessage(session);
m.setFrom("sender");
m.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, "recipient");
m.setSentDate("date");
m.setSubject("subject");
m.setText("text");

Transport.send(m);

Hello.
Sorry for the confusion. What i meant does tomcat have a built in
emailing? As u replied there is .
But is it on by default? when i try running the example inside , it
seems to be a dummy one.
What i am trying to do is to mail a user automatically everytime he
makes a purchase.
inside the default server.xml as shown below, is this the way to enable
emailing or is there more to it?
Thanks..

Yes.  Tomcat is not a mail transfer agent (MTA).  You will need a MTA on 
the standard port (port 25), either on localhost or some other host.  
Typical MTAs are sendmail, qmail, Microsoft's IIS, and many more.

The mail services included with Tomcat for sending mail interface with an 
MTA, they do not implement an MTA.

You can use any compatible MTA, such as sendmail on localhost if you have a 
UNIX-like system, or Microsoft's SMTP service on localhost if you have 
Windows, or any other remote MTA that is available to you, such as the MTA 
provided by your ISP.

Provided that localhost has an SMTP server then yes, e-mailing is "on."
The
example .jsp does in fact send e-mails provided that everything else is
configured correctly.

Don't understand your question. Tomcat has built-in mail session jndi
lookup. You can use it in your program. Is that what you want?
