Cannor send mail using javax.mail in android

A common issue!

To send email using javax.mail in Android, you need to follow these steps:

Add the javax.mail library to your project: You can do this by adding the following dependency to your build.gradle file:
```
dependencies {
 implementation 'com.sun.mail:android-mail:1.6.2'
}
```

Get the Session object: Create a Session object using the following code:

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

Replace "your-smtp-host", "your-smtp-port", "your-email", and "your-password" with your actual SMTP server details.

Create a Message object: Create a Message object using the following code:

Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("your-email"));
message.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("recipient-email"));
message.setSubject("Your Subject");
message.setText("Your message");

Replace "your-email" and "recipient-email" with the actual email addresses.

Send the email: Use the Transport class to send the email:

Transport.send(message);

Here's the complete code:


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

public class EmailSender { public static void sendEmail(String smtpHost, int smtpPort, String email, String password, String recipientEmail, String subject, String message) { Properties props = new Properties(); props.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpHost); props.put("mail.smtp.port", smtpPort); props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true"); Session session = Session.getInstance(props, new Authenticator() { @Override protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() { return new PasswordAuthentication(email, password); } });

    Message messageObj = new MimeMessage(session);
    messageObj.setFrom(new InternetAddress(email));
    messageObj.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(recipientEmail));
    messageObj.setSubject(subject);
    messageObj.setText(message);

    Transport.send(messageObj);
}

}

Call the `sendEmail` method with the required parameters to send the email.

Note: Make sure to handle exceptions properly and add necessary permissions to your AndroidManifest.xml file:
```xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
