Javax mail jar

The javax.mail jar!

javax.mail is a Java API for sending and receiving email messages. It's a part of the Java Standard Edition (SE) and is included in the Java Development Kit (JDK).

The javax.mail jar is typically included in the JDK, so you don't need to download it separately. However, if you're using a Java IDE like Eclipse or IntelliJ, you may need to add the javax.mail jar to your project's classpath.

Here are the steps to add the javax.mail jar to your project:

Using Maven

If you're using Maven, you can add the following dependency to your pom.xml file:

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.mail</groupId>
    <artifactId>mail</artifactId>
    <version>1.6.2</version>
</dependency>

Using Gradle

If you're using Gradle, you can add the following dependency to your build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    implementation 'javax.mail:mail:1.6.2'
}

Using Eclipse

If you're using Eclipse, you can add the javax.mail jar to your project's classpath by following these steps:

  1. Right-click on your project in the Eclipse Project Explorer.
  2. Select "Properties" from the context menu.
  3. In the Properties dialog, select "Java Build Path" from the left-hand menu.
  4. Click on the "Libraries" tab.
  5. Click on the "Add External JARs..." button.
  6. Navigate to the location where the javax.mail jar is located (e.g., C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-14.0.2\lib\mail.jar).
  7. Select the javax.mail jar and click "OK".

Using IntelliJ

If you're using IntelliJ, you can add the javax.mail jar to your project's classpath by following these steps:

  1. Open your project in IntelliJ.
  2. Go to the "File" menu and select "Project Structure" (or press Ctrl + Shift + Alt + S on Windows/Linux or Cmd + Shift + Alt + S on Mac).
  3. In the Project Structure dialog, select "Modules" from the left-hand menu.
  4. Select your project module from the list of modules.
  5. Click on the "Dependencies" tab.
  6. Click on the "+" button to add a new dependency.
  7. Select "JARs or directories" from the dropdown menu.
  8. Navigate to the location where the javax.mail jar is located (e.g., C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-14.0.2\lib\mail.jar).
  9. Select the javax.mail jar and click "OK".

Once you've added the javax.mail jar to your project, you should be able to use the javax.mail API to send and receive email messages.
