4 The Simple Email Email email = new SimpleEmail(); email.setHostName("smtp.gmail.com"); email.setSmtpPort(587); email.setTLS(true); email.setAuthenticator(new DefaultAuthenticator(“foo", “bar")); email.setFrom("user@gmail.com"); email.setSubject("TestMail"); email.setMsg("This is a test mail... :-)"); email.addTo("foo@bar.com"); email.send(); Email email = new SimpleEmail(); email.setHostName("smtp.gmail.com"); email.setSmtpPort(587); email.setTLS(true); email.setAuthenticator(new DefaultAuthenticator(“foo", “bar")); email.setFrom("user@gmail.com"); email.setSubject("TestMail"); email.setMsg("This is a test mail... :-)"); email.addTo("foo@bar.com"); email.send(); Using SimpleEmail Apache Commons Email4

5 The Simple Email Email email = new SimpleEmail(); email.setHostName("smtp.gmail.com"); email.setSmtpPort(587); email.setTLS(true); email.setAuthenticator(new DefaultAuthenticator(“foo", “bar")); email.setFrom("user@gmail.com"); email.setSubject("TestMail"); email.setMsg("This is a test mail... :-)"); email.addTo("foo@bar.com"); email.send(); Email email = new SimpleEmail(); email.setHostName("smtp.gmail.com"); email.setSmtpPort(587); email.setTLS(true); email.setAuthenticator(new DefaultAuthenticator(“foo", “bar")); email.setFrom("user@gmail.com"); email.setSubject("TestMail"); email.setMsg("This is a test mail... :-)"); email.addTo("foo@bar.com"); email.send(); Mail Session Properties Apache Commons Email5

URL url = new URL( http://nemo.sonarsource.org/project/index/269309?page_id=2 ); email.setHtmlMsg(getFromUrl(url)); email.send(); Apache Commons Email16

20 Tips and Tricks How to get a Mail Session –Implicit creation by using Email.setXXX() –Explicitely using Email.setMailSession() –Can’t be mixed and matched Internationalization –Use UTF-8 as charset –Non-ASCII attachment names work but violate MIME specification Apache Commons Email20

21 Tips and Tricks Getting the underlying MimeMessage –Invoke Emai.buildMimeMessage() –Asynchronous processing –SMIME signature –Batch sending of emails When sending emails does not work –Email.setDebug(true) Apache Commons Email21
