Refer to <A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc821.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 821</A> for more information. <P> When sending a message, detailed information on each address that fails is available in an <a href="../../../../com/sun/mail/smtp/SMTPAddressFailedException.html" title="class in com.sun.mail.smtp"><code>SMTPAddressFailedException</code></a> chained off the top level <a href="../../../../javax/mail/SendFailedException.html" title="class in javax.mail"><code>SendFailedException</code></a> that is thrown. In addition, if the <code>mail.smtp.reportsuccess</code> property is set, an <a href="../../../../com/sun/mail/smtp/SMTPAddressSucceededException.html" title="class in com.sun.mail.smtp"><code>SMTPAddressSucceededException</code></a> will be included in the list for each address that is successful. Note that this will cause a top level <a href="../../../../javax/mail/SendFailedException.html" title="class in javax.mail"><code>SendFailedException</code></a> to be thrown even though the send was successful. <P> The SMTP provider also supports ESMTP (<A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1651.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 1651</A>). It can optionally use SMTP Authentication (<A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2554.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 2554</A>) using the LOGIN, PLAIN, DIGEST-MD5, and NTLM mechanisms (<A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4616.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 4616</A> and <A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2831.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 2831</A>). <P> To use SMTP authentication you'll need to set the <code>mail.smtp.auth</code> property (see below) or provide the SMTP Transport with a username and password when connecting to the SMTP server. You can do this using one of the following approaches: <P> <UL> <LI> Provide an Authenticator object when creating your mail Session and provide the username and password information during the Authenticator callback. <P> Note that the <code>mail.smtp.user</code> property can be set to provide a default username for the callback, but the password will still need to be supplied explicitly. <P> This approach allows you to use the static Transport <code>send</code> method to send messages. </LI> <P> <LI> Call the Transport <code>connect</code> method explicitly with username and password arguments. <P> This approach requires you to explicitly manage a Transport object and use the Transport <code>sendMessage</code> method to send the message. The transport.java demo program demonstrates how to manage a Transport object. The following is roughly equivalent to the static Transport <code>send</code> method, but supplies the needed username and password: <P> <BLOCKQUOTE><PRE> Transport tr = session.getTransport("smtp"); tr.connect(smtphost, username, password); msg.saveChanges(); // don't forget this tr.sendMessage(msg, msg.getAllRecipients()); tr.close(); </PRE></BLOCKQUOTE> </LI> </UL> <P> When using DIGEST-MD5 authentication, you'll also need to supply an appropriate realm; your mail server administrator can supply this information. You can set this using the <code>mail.smtp.sasl.realm</code> property, or the <code>setSASLRealm</code> method on <code>SMTPTransport</code>. <P> The SMTP protocol provider can use SASL (<A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2222.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 2222</A>) authentication mechanisms on systems that support the <CODE>javax.security.sasl</CODE> APIs, such as J2SE 5.0. In addition to the SASL mechanisms that are built into the SASL implementation, users can also provide additional SASL mechanisms of their own design to support custom authentication schemes. See the <A HREF="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/security/sasl/sasl-refguide.html" TARGET="_top"> Java SASL API Programming and Deployment Guide</A> for details. Note that the current implementation doesn't support SASL mechanisms that provide their own integrity or confidentiality layer. <P> Support for OAuth 2.0 authentication via the <A HREF="https://developers.google.com/gmail/xoauth2_protocol" TARGET="_top"> XOAUTH2 authentication mechanism</A> is provided either through the SASL support described above or as a built-in authentication mechanism in the SMTP provider. The OAuth 2.0 Access Token should be passed as the password for this mechanism. See <A HREF="https://java.net/projects/javamail/pages/OAuth2" TARGET="_top"> OAuth2 Support</A> for details. <P> SMTP can also optionally request Delivery Status Notifications (<A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1891.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 1891</A>). The delivery status will typically be reported using a "multipart/report" (<A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1892.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 1892</A>) message type with a "message/delivery-status" (<A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1894.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 1894</A>) part. You can use the classes in the <a href="../../../../com/sun/mail/dsn/package-summary.html"><code>com.sun.mail.dsn</code></a> package to handle these MIME types. Note that you'll need to include <code>dsn.jar</code> in your CLASSPATH as this support is not included in <code>mail.jar</code>. <P> See below for the properties to enable these features. <P> Note also that <strong>THERE IS NOT SUFFICIENT DOCUMENTATION HERE TO USE THESE FEATURES!!!</strong> You will need to read the appropriate RFCs mentioned above to understand what these features do and how to use them. Don't just start setting properties and then complain to us when it doesn't work like you expect it to work. <strong>READ THE RFCs FIRST!!!</strong> <P> The SMTP protocol provider supports the CHUNKING extension defined in <A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3030.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 3030</A>. Set the <code>mail.smtp.chunksize</code> property to the desired chunk size in bytes. If the server supports the CHUNKING extension, the BDAT command will be used to send the message in chunksize pieces. Note that no pipelining is done so this will be slower than sending the message in one piece. Note also that the BINARYMIME extension described in RFC 3030 is NOT supported. <P> <A NAME="properties"> <H4>Properties</H4> </A> The SMTP protocol provider supports the following properties, which may be set in the JavaMail <code>Session</code> object. The properties are always set as strings; the Type column describes how the string is interpreted. For example, use <PRE> props.put("mail.smtp.port", "888"); </PRE> to set the <CODE>mail.smtp.port</CODE> property, which is of type int. <P> Note that if you're using the "smtps" protocol to access SMTP over SSL, all the properties would be named "mail.smtps.*". <P> <TABLE BORDER> <TR> <TH>Name</TH> <TH>Type</TH> <TH>Description</TH> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.user"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.user"> <TD>mail.smtp.user</TD> <TD>String</TD> <TD>Default user name for SMTP.</TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.host"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.host"> <TD>mail.smtp.host</TD> <TD>String</TD> <TD>The SMTP server to connect to.</TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.port"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.port"> <TD>mail.smtp.port</TD> <TD>int</TD> <TD>The SMTP server port to connect to, if the connect() method doesn't explicitly specify one.

The property value is a whitespace separated list of tokens acceptable to the <code>javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket.setEnabledProtocols</code> method. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.ssl.ciphersuites"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.ssl.ciphersuites"> <TD>mail.smtp.ssl.ciphersuites</TD> <TD>string</TD> <TD> Specifies the SSL cipher suites that will be enabled for SSL connections. The property value is a whitespace separated list of tokens acceptable to the <code>javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket.setEnabledCipherSuites</code> method. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.starttls.enable"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.starttls.enable"> <TD>mail.smtp.starttls.enable</TD> <TD>boolean</TD> <TD> If true, enables the use of the <code>STARTTLS</code> command (if supported by the server) to switch the connection to a TLS-protected connection before issuing any login commands. Note that an appropriate trust store must configured so that the client will trust the server's certificate. Defaults to false. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.starttls.required"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.starttls.required"> <TD>mail.smtp.starttls.required</TD> <TD>boolean</TD> <TD> If true, requires the use of the <code>STARTTLS</code> command. If the server doesn't support the STARTTLS command, or the command fails, the connect method will fail. Defaults to false. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.proxy.host"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.proxy.host"> <TD>mail.smtp.proxy.host</TD> <TD>string</TD> <TD> Specifies the host name of an HTTP web proxy server that will be used for connections to the mail server. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.proxy.port"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.proxy.port"> <TD>mail.smtp.proxy.port</TD> <TD>string</TD> <TD> Specifies the port number for the HTTP web proxy server. Defaults to port 80. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.socks.host"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.socks.host"> <TD>mail.smtp.socks.host</TD> <TD>string</TD> <TD> Specifies the host name of a SOCKS5 proxy server that will be used for connections to the mail server. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.socks.port"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.socks.port"> <TD>mail.smtp.socks.port</TD> <TD>string</TD> <TD> Specifies the port number for the SOCKS5 proxy server. This should only need to be used if the proxy server is not using the standard port number of 1080. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.mailextension"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.mailextension"> <TD>mail.smtp.mailextension</TD> <TD>String</TD> <TD> Extension string to append to the MAIL command. The extension string can be used to specify standard SMTP service extensions as well as vendor-specific extensions. Typically the application should use the <a href="../../../../com/sun/mail/smtp/SMTPTransport.html" title="class in com.sun.mail.smtp"><code>SMTPTransport</code></a> method <a href="../../../../com/sun/mail/smtp/SMTPTransport.html#supportsExtension-java.lang.String-"><code>supportsExtension</code></a> to verify that the server supports the desired service extension. See <A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1869.txt" TARGET="_top">RFC 1869</A> and other RFCs that define specific extensions. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.userset"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.userset"> <TD>mail.smtp.userset</TD> <TD>boolean</TD> <TD> If set to true, use the RSET command instead of the NOOP command in the <a href="../../../../javax/mail/Service.html#isConnected--"><code>isConnected</code></a> method. In some cases sendmail will respond slowly after many NOOP commands; use of RSET avoids this sendmail issue. Defaults to false. </TD> </TR> <A NAME="mail.smtp.noop.strict"></A> <TR id="mail.smtp.noop.strict"> <TD>mail.smtp.noop.strict</TD> <TD>boolean</TD> <TD> If set to true (the default), insist on a 250 response code from the NOOP command to indicate success. The NOOP command is used by the <a href="../../../../javax/mail/Service.html#isConnected--"><code>isConnected</code></a> method to determine if the connection is still alive. Some older servers return the wrong response code on success, some servers don't implement the NOOP command at all and so always return a failure code. Set this property to false to handle servers that are broken in this way. Normally, when a server times out a connection, it will send a 421 response code, which the client will see as the response to the next command it issues. Some servers send the wrong failure response code when timing out a connection. Do not set this property to false when dealing with servers that are broken in this way. </TD> </TR> </TABLE> <P> In general, applications should not need to use the classes in this package directly. Instead, they should use the APIs defined by <code>javax.mail</code> package (and subpackages). Applications should never construct instances of <code>SMTPTransport</code> directly.
