Hi, After a couple frustrating hours, I finally got the mailer taglib to use a specified smtp server by setting CATALINA_OPTS to -Dmail.smtp.host=smtp.hbs.edu.
I tried using the server="smtp.hbs.edu" attribute, but it didn't work. I tried hardcoding my smtp server in MailTag.java and then in SentTag.java, but that didn't work. (I actually don't see where the server attribute is ever being used). I then tried numerous combinations of <param> type configs in various xml files, to no avail (I admit to being a tomcat novice). Setting an environment variable on the command line is ok, but I'm wondering why the server attribute isn't working for me. After doing some debugging, it looks like 1) the server attribute is never used to set up the "mail.smtp.host" property for the Session object, and 2) the sessionobj (in MailTag) that is passed to new MimeMessage() is null. Am I crazy? Is this working for everyone else? Or am I the only one not using a local SMTP server? I'm guessing that the JavaMail API is involved here. This is on Solaris 5.6, JDK 1.3.1, Tomcat 4.0-B1. Does anyone know of a way to put this system property in a server.xml or web.xml file so I don't have to modify the environment or the startup script?
