Issue
I'm not familiar with this function to send mail in java. I'm getting an error while sending email to reset a password. Hope you can give me a solution.
Below is my code:
public synchronized static boolean sendMailAdvance(String emailTo, String subject, String body)
{
String host = AppConfigManager.getProperty("SENDER-EMAIL-SMTP-ADDRESS");
String userName = AppConfigManager.getProperty("SENDER-EMAIL-SMTP-USERNAME");
String password = AppConfigManager.getProperty("SENDER-EMAIL-SMTP-PASSWORD");
String port = AppConfigManager.getProperty("SENDER-EMAIL-SMTP-PORT");
String starttls = AppConfigManager.getProperty("SENDER-EMAIL-SMTP-STARTTLS");
String socketFactoryClass = AppConfigManager.getProperty("SENDER-EMAIL-SMTP-SOCKET-CLASS");
String fallback = AppConfigManager.getProperty("SENDER-EMAIL-SMTP-ALLOW-FALLBACK");
try
{
java.util.Properties props = null;
props = System.getProperties();
props.put("mail.smtp.user", userName);
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.debug", "true");
if(!"".equals(port))
{
props.put("mail.smtp.port", port);
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", port);
}
if(!"".equals(starttls))
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable",starttls);
if(!"".equals(socketFactoryClass))
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.class",socketFactoryClass);
if(!"".equals(fallback))
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback", fallback);
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
session.setDebug(true);
MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(userName));
msg.setSubject(subject);
msg.setText(body, "ISO-8859-1");
msg.setSentDate(new Date());
msg.setHeader("content-Type", "text/html;charset=\"ISO-8859-1\"");
msg.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(emailTo));
msg.saveChanges();
Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
transport.connect(host, userName, password);
transport.sendMessage(msg, msg.getAllRecipients());
transport.close();
return true;
}
catch (Exception mex)
{
mex.printStackTrace();
return false;
}
}
Throws the following error:

Solution
You should change the port to 587
, I tested your code and it's working fine
If error still happens, please change session variable to code below:
Session session = Session.getInstance(props, new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication(userName, password);
}
});
