Automatic mail sender using java

Here is an example of how you can create an automatic mail sender using Java:

Step 1: Add the necessary libraries

You will need to add the following libraries to your Java project:

javax.mail (JavaMail API) for sending emails
javax.mail.internet for working with email addresses and messages

You can add these libraries to your project by downloading them from the official JavaMail website and adding them to your project's classpath.

Step 2: Create a Java class for sending emails

Create a new Java class, for example EmailSender.java, and add the following code:

import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import java.util.Properties;

public class EmailSender {
    public static void sendEmail(String from, String to, String subject, String body) throws Exception {
        // Set the properties for the email
        Properties props = new Properties();
        props.put("mail.smtp.host", "your-smtp-host");
        props.put("mail.smtp.port", "your-smtp-port");
        props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");

        // Create a session
        Session session = Session.getInstance(props, new Authenticator() {
            @Override
            protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
                return new PasswordAuthentication("your-email-username", "your-email-password");
            }
        });

        // Create a message
        Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
        message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
        message.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));
        message.setSubject(subject);
        message.setText(body);

        // Send the message
        Transport.send(message);
    }
}

Replace your-smtp-host, your-smtp-port, your-email-username, and your-email-password with your actual email server settings and credentials.

Step 3: Use the EmailSender class

You can now use the EmailSender class to send emails programmatically. For example:

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            EmailSender.sendEmail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "Hello World!", "This is a test email.");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Error sending email: " + e.getMessage());
        }
    }
}

This code sends an email from [email protected] to [email protected] with the subject "Hello World!" and body "This is a test email.".

Step 4: Schedule the email sender

To send emails automatically, you can schedule the EmailSender class to run at regular intervals using a scheduler such as Quartz or Java's built-in Timer class.

For example, you can use Quartz to schedule the email sender to run every hour:

import org.quartz.*;

public class EmailSenderScheduler {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Create a Quartz scheduler
        Scheduler scheduler = StdSchedulerFactory.getDefaultScheduler();

        // Create a job to send emails
        JobDetail job = JobBuilder.newJob(EmailSender.class).build();

        // Create a trigger to run the job every hour
        Trigger trigger = TriggerBuilder.newTrigger().withIdentity("email-sender").startNow().withSimpleSchedule().build();

        // Schedule the job
        scheduler.scheduleJob(job, trigger);

        // Start the scheduler
        scheduler.start();
    }
}

This code creates a Quartz scheduler and schedules the EmailSender class to run every hour. The EmailSender class will send an email using the sendEmail method.
