i have a java code in that i must send a attachment, it may be .doc,.db or .file. So i use the following code, the message was delivered successfully and particular attachment file was not send and also received.
My Code is:
import java.util.Date; import java.util.Properties; import javax.activation.DataHandler; import javax.activation.FileDataSource; import javax.mail.Message; import javax.mail.Message.RecipientType; import javax.mail.MessagingException; import javax.mail.Multipart; import javax.mail.Session; import javax.mail.Transport; import javax.mail.internet.AddressException; import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress; import javax.mail.internet.MimeBodyPart; import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage; import javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart; public class SendEmail { private String from = "[email protected]"; private String to; private String subject; private String text; String filename = "hardWare_Dtls.file"; String host = "smtp.gmail.com"; public SendEmail(String from, String to, String subject, String text,String filename) { // System.out.println("From Adress inside constr"+from); this.from = from; this.to = to; this.subject = subject; this.text = text; this.filename=filename; } public void send() { Properties props = System.getProperties(); System.out.println("Email Options SendEmail"); props.put("mail.smtp.host", host); props.put("mail.smtp.user", from); props.put("mail.smtp.password", "123456"); props.put("mail.smtp.port", "587"); // 587 is the port number of yahoo // mail props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true"); props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true"); Session mailSession = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null); Message simpleMessage = new MimeMessage(mailSession); InternetAddress fromAddress = null; InternetAddress toAddress = null; try { fromAddress = new InternetAddress(from); toAddress = new InternetAddress(to); } catch (AddressException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block // e.printStackTrace(); System.out.println("Address Exception" + e.getMessage()); } try { System.out.println("From Address" + fromAddress); simpleMessage.setFrom(fromAddress); simpleMessage.setRecipient(RecipientType.TO, toAddress); System.out.println("To Address" + toAddress); simpleMessage.setSubject(subject); simpleMessage.setText(text); simpleMessage.setSentDate(new Date()); MimeBodyPart attachmentPart = new MimeBodyPart(); FileDataSource fileDataSource = new FileDataSource(filename) { @Override public String getContentType() { return "application/octet-stream"; } }; attachmentPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(fileDataSource)); attachmentPart.setFileName(filename); Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart(); // multipart.addBodyPart(messagePart); multipart.addBodyPart(attachmentPart); // simpleMessage.setText(attachment); Transport transport = mailSession.getTransport("smtps"); transport.connect("smtp.gmail.com", "[email protected]", "123456"); simpleMessage.saveChanges(); transport.sendMessage(simpleMessage, simpleMessage.getAllRecipients()); Transport.send(simpleMessage); transport.close(); // Transport.send(simpleMessage); } catch (MessagingException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block // e.printStackTrace(); System.out.println("Messagine Exception" + e.getMessage()); } } }
in this code what mistake i had. If any other code for sending a message with attachment using Javacode, kindly send me. thanks in Advance.
I use this code in my Main Class:
String from = "[email protected]"; String to = "[email protected]"; String subject = "Sample Text Message"; String message = "Sample Msg with File attachment"; String filename="hardWare_Dtls.file"; SendEmail sendMail = new SendEmail(from, to, subject, message,filename); sendMail.send();
Answer
You have pretty much all the pieces but you should use a MimeMessage (instead of just Message), and set its content to be your Multipart. I think you actually tried to do that but your code wouldn’t compile so you commented out the line:
// simpleMessage.setText(attachment);
Instead of that do this:
((MimeMessage) simpleMessage).setContent(multipart);
And test again. It should work.
