Sending email with Html content

As we send the email, we can send the html content also.

For better understanding of this example, learn the steps of sending email using JavaMail API first.

For receiving or sending the email using JavaMail API, you need to load the two jar files:

mail.jar
activation.jar

download these jar files (or) go to the Oracle site to download the latest version.

Example of sending email with html content using JavaMail API

import java.util.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import javax.activation.*;

class SendHtmlEmail
{
   public static void main(String [] args)
   {

      String host="mail.javatpoint.com";//change accordingly
      String to="sonoojaiswal1987@gmail.com";//change accordingly
      final String user="sonoojaiswal@javatpoint.com";//change accordingly
      final String password="xxxxx";//change accordingly

      Properties properties = System.getProperties();
      properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", );
      properties.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");

      Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties,
	new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
	 protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
	  return new PasswordAuthentication(user,password);
	 }
      });
      
      try{
         MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
         message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(user));
         message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,
                                  new InternetAddress(to));

        message.setSubject("HTML Message");
        message.setContent("<h1>sending html mail check</h1>","text/html" );
  
       Transport.send(message);
         System.out.println("message sent....");
      }catch (MessagingException ex) {ex.printStackTrace();}
   }
}
