Smitha,

Try using this.

public string sendMail (string from, string to, string cc, string bcc, string subject, string body) {
 // Mail initialization 
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
 mail.From = from;
 mail.To = to;
 mail.Cc = cc;
 mail.Bcc = bcc;
 mail.Subject = subject;
 mail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text;
 mail.Body = body;
 // Smtp configuration
 SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "smtp.gmail.com";
 // - smtp.gmail.com use smtp authentication
 mail.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate", "1");
 mail.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername", "myemail@gmail.com");
 mail.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword", "mypassword");
 // - smtp.gmail.com use port 465 or 587
 mail.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport", "465");
 // - smtp.gmail.com use STARTTLS (some clients call this SSL)
 mail.Fields.Add("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpusessl", "true");
 // Mail sending
 try {
   SmtpMail.Send(mail);
   return "";
 } catch (Exception ex) {
   return ex.Message;
}

Hi,

Have you provided the correct SMTP server name? From your post it's "mail.enteg.com".

Hi,

I have used this code and i was able to send mail with attachments Sucessfully.

1)U should give the name of host(mail server) correctly i.e. where the mail is sent.

2)Add the jar mail.jar ans activation.jar.

3)Ur webas server and mail server should have connection.

4)Write this code in any action event handler

Properties p = new Properties();

p.put("mail.transport.protocol", "smtp");

p.put("mail.smtp.host", "host name");

p.put("mail.smtp.port", "25");

Session session = Session.getInstance(p);

session.setDebug(false);

// Define message

MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);

message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("fromadress"));

message.addRecipient( Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(toadress));

message.setSubject("Hi ");

MimeBodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();

//fill message

messageBodyPart.setText("PFA");

Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();

multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);

message.setContent(multipart);

// Part two is attachment

messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();

String fileAttachment="path ot attachment file";

DataSource source = new FileDataSource(fileAttachment);

messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));

messageBodyPart.setFileName("xxx");

multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);

message.setContent(multipart);

// Send message

Transport.send(message);

} catch (Exception e) {

wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().raiseException("Exception"+e,true);

}

Hope this helps,

REgards,
