Re: Tomcat configuring for email
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.

RE: Tomcat configuring for email
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); -Original Message- From: Clement [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: June 6, 2003 11:30 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat configuring for email Hello.

RE: Tomcat configuring for email
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. -Original Message- From: Clement [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 06, 2003 8:30 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat configuring for email Hello.
