There are two ways that you can do this: 1.) You can put String values into JNDI with the <Environment/> tag. https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/globalresources.html#Environment_Entries You would then need to use Spring to pull each String value from JNDI. This would be a bit tedious if you need to specify more than one or two values. 2.) Alternatively, you could configure a complete Java Mail Session with Tomcat. https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html#JavaMail_Sessions Then load the Session from JNDI with Spring and pass the session to your org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl bean, rather than specifying individual properties. >From the JavaMailSenderImpl Java Docs: "Allows for defining all settings locally as bean properties. Alternatively, a pre-configured JavaMail Session can be specified, possibly pulled from an application server's JNDI environment." http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.1.x/javadoc-api/org/springframework/mail/javamail/JavaMailSenderImpl.html Dan > > -----Original Message----- > From: Daniel Mikusa [mailto:dmik...@vmware.com] > Sent: Wednesday, January 11, 2012 8:29 AM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: Re: Context configuration file > > On Wed, 2012-01-11 at 05:01 -0800, Thom Hehl wrote: > > We are using a context configuration file to provide our database > > connectivity through a JNDI entry to our application so that the file > > can change without the purchasers of our software having to tinker about > > with it internally.
