Hello,
After upgrading from Tomcat 4.0. to 4.1.12, I encountered weird errors with certain
mailer tags (mt:).
Specifically, the mt:setrecipient tag seems to "hold on to" a value previously set in
a seperate session <!>
In my case, I have a form, which when submitted would also use the mt: tag to send an
email to that user, passing them back information they just submitted in their form.
Here is the example:
<mt:mail server="localhost" from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" subject="Welcome">
<mt:setrecipient type="to"><%= (request.getParameter("emailAddr")) %></mt:setrecipient>
<mt:message type="text">
Welcome!
Here is a reminder of your username and password to access the forums:
Username: <%= (request.getParameter("userName")) %>
Password: <%= (request.getParameter("password")) %>
</mt:message>
<mt:send/>
</mt:mail>
Once this jsp is called, the "setrecipient" value will stay what it was the first time
the jsp is processed. A seperate user, with a new session, calling the same jsp, will
somehow have the orriginal "Setrecipient" value, and would send the email to the wrong
address! (thankfully this is being worked out on our dev server). What is interesting
is that if I set the recipient to my own account, and include the email paramter in
the body of the message, it rights it there properly!
so this works:
<mt:mail server="localhost" from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" subject="Welcome">
<mt:setrecipient type="to">[EMAIL PROTECTED]</mt:setrecipient>
<mt:message type="text">
Welcome!
This email was intended for <%= (request.getParameter("emailAddr")) %>
Here is a reminder of your username and password to access the forums:
Username: <%= (request.getParameter("userName")) %>
Password: <%= (request.getParameter("password")) %>
</mt:message>
<mt:send/>
</mt:mail>
So, why can I not seem to populate the "to" for this email dynamicly? Why does it
hold onto that value from the first request of this jsp and not process it properly?
Any help or insight into this would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
Patrick Swarts
