Or you could just use the Java Mail APIs which are clean, clear and should
do these things for you. It is simply INCORRECT to think that the hostname
in an email address is the same as the host that will receive the email.
You should have an SMTP server where you can send mail to and let the mail
system do the delivering, unless you want to replicate all of the complexity
of the mail world per the spec mentioned below...
