Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
try {
Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(""));
message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
InternetAddress.parse(""));
message.setSubject("Testing Subject");
message.setText("Dear Mail Crawler," +
"\n\n No spam to my email, please!");
Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
transport.connect(host, port, username, password);
Transport.send(message);
System.out.println("Done");
} catch (MessagingException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
}
I have given all the necessary inputs . But still it fails with
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: javax.mail.AuthenticationFailedException: failed to connect, no password specified?
at com.bcs.SendMailTLS.main(SendMailTLS.java:43)
