JavaMail is a Java API used for sending and receiving email messages. It supports both simple and complex email applications and is widely used for sending automated emails from Java-based applications.
Possibilities
To use JavaMail in Windows, you need to install Java SE Development Kit and download the JavaMail API from the Java website. After installation, you can integrate the API into your Java project and start using it to send and receive emails.
JavaMail provides a number of classes and interfaces for sending and receiving emails, including Session, Transport, Store, Folder, Message, and Address. It also provides the MimeMessage class for sending messages in MIME format, which is a widely used standard for sending email messages.
Additional functions
In addition to basic email functionality, JavaMail also provides features such as attachments, HTML content, and encrypted messaging. To send an email, you simply create a new message, set the recipient, subject, and body, and then send it using the Transport class.
To receive email, you use the Store and Folder classes to connect to the email server, retrieve the email messages, and process them. JavaMail also provides the capability to read and process email messages as they arrive, which is useful for building real-time email-based applications.
JavaMail is supported by a wide range of email servers, including Gmail, Yahoo, and Microsoft Exchange, making it a versatile and flexible solution for email communication.
