This is what I found as necessary to make this work:
First of all you need
javamail-1.2 (of course) AND!
jaf-1.0.1
I expect you have these.
Next I found the following code snippet required, otherwise
I got the same error...
// using java mail
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.put( "mail.smtp.host", pConfig.getConfig( "Mail.MailHost" ) );
props.put( "mail.transport.protocol", pConfig.getConfig( "Mail.Transport" )
);
javax.mail.Session mSession =
javax.mail.Session.getDefaultInstance( props, null );
The key here is the "mail.transport.protocol". The providerexception is
referring to this if my memory serves me. You need to specify a transport
protocol, i.e. "smtp", for the session/provider and this is done through
the properties. My "smtp" retrieved from a config file.
This comment from Sun has a lot of value:
It is expected that the client supplies values for the properties listed in
Appendix A of the JavaMail spec (particularly mail.store.protocol,
mail.transport.protocol, mail.host, mail.user, and mail.from) as the
defaults are unlikely to work in all cases.
Good Luck
Tom

Hmm, it's strange. Looks like you dont have all jars required even though
standart JavaMail is supposed to contain provider for rfc822.
Does standalone application work fine?
