How to send a mail from java with out sender
In Java, you can send an email without a sender (also known as "anonymous" or "no-reply" email) using the JavaMail API. Here's an example:
Step 1: Add the JavaMail API to your project
You'll need to add the JavaMail API to your project. You can do this by adding the following dependency to your pom.xml
file (if you're using Maven) or by downloading the JAR file and adding it to your project's classpath:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun.mail</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.mail</artifactId>
<version>1.6.2</version>
</dependency>
Step 2: Create a JavaMail session
Create a JavaMail session using the following code:
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:
// Create a MimeMessage
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
Step 4: Set the recipient and subject
Set the recipient and subject of the email:
// Set the recipient
message.setRecipient(MimeMessage.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));
// Set the subject
message.setSubject("No-reply email");
Step 5: Set the message body
Set the message body:
// Set the message body
message.setText("This is a no-reply email.");
Step 6: Send the email
Send the email using the Transport
class:
// Send the email
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 NoReplyEmail {
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 recipient
message.setRecipient(MimeMessage.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));
// Set the subject
message.setSubject("No-reply email");
// Set the message body
message.setText("This is a no-reply email.");
// Send the email
Transport.send(message);
}
}
Note that this code sends an email without a sender (i.e., the From
field is empty). This is not recommended in most cases, as it can lead to deliverability issues and make it difficult for recipients to respond to the email. If you need to send no-reply emails, it's recommended to use a valid sender email address and include a clear disclaimer indicating that the email is automated and cannot be replied to.
