Project Information

Simple Java Mail is made of, basically, three things:

• A Mail class with simple methods like setSubject() and addAttachment().
• A CliMailer class to make sending mail with the command-line a very easy task.
• JavaMail API and Commons CLI

Examples

Command-line usage (with SMTP authentication and attachments):

java -jar mailer.jar --from your-email@server.com --subject "Some news for you" --message "Sending mail can be simpler" --to recipient@server.com --to other-recipient@server.com -bcc copy@server.com --attach file.txt --attach other_file.txt --server smtp.server.com --username myself --password foobar

Code usage:

Mail.setServerName("smtp.server.com");
Mail.setSMTPAuthentication("myself", "foobar");

Mail m = new Mail();
m.setFrom("your-email@server.com");
m.setSubject("Some news for you");
m.setMessage("Sending mail can be simpler");
m.addTo("recipient@server.com");
m.addTo("other-recipient@server.com");
m.addBcc("copy@server.com");
m.addAttachment("file.txt");
m.addAttachment("other_file.txt");
m.send(true);
