How to add cc in mail using java

To add a CC (Carbon Copy) recipient in an email using Java, you can use the JavaMail API. Here's an example:

Step 1: Add the JavaMail API to your project

You can add the JavaMail API to your project using Maven or Gradle. Here's an example of how to add it using Maven:

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.sun.mail</groupId>
        <artifactId>javax.mail</artifactId>
        <version>1.6.2</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

Step 2: Create a JavaMail session

Create a JavaMail session using the Session class:

import javax.mail.Session;
import javax.mail.Transport;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

// Create a JavaMail session
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(new Properties(), null);

Step 3: Create a MimeMessage

Create a MimeMessage object to represent the email:

MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);

Step 4: Set the sender and recipient

Set the sender and recipient of the email:

message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));
message.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));

Step 5: Add CC recipients

Add the CC recipients using the addRecipients method:

message.addRecipients(Message.RecipientType.CC, new InternetAddress[] {
    new InternetAddress("[email protected]"),
    new InternetAddress("[email protected]")
});

Step 6: Set the subject and body

Set the subject and body of the email:

message.setSubject("Test email");
message.setText("This is a test email.");

Step 7: Send the email

Send the email using the Transport class:

Transport.send(message);

Here's the complete code:

import javax.mail.Session;
import javax.mail.Transport;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

public class SendEmail {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Create a JavaMail session
        Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(new Properties(), null);

        // Create a MimeMessage
        MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);

        // Set the sender and recipient
        message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));
        message.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));

        // Add CC recipients
        message.addRecipients(Message.RecipientType.CC, new InternetAddress[] {
            new InternetAddress("[email protected]"),
            new InternetAddress("[email protected]")
        });

        // Set the subject and body
        message.setSubject("Test email");
        message.setText("This is a test email.");

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

Note that you'll need to replace the placeholders ([email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]) with the actual email addresses you want to use.
