问题:

I am running a very basic Javamail program to try sending emails. This is stand-alone program with main(). Once I get it working, I plan to use Javamail in a servlet running under tomcat.

I was getting AUTH LOGIN failed error when running this program. I tried several different property settings, none of which solved the problem.

Then I found a post on SO, which suggested lowering the required security level in my Google account. The authentication was successful when I lowered the security setting.

Of course, I went back to higher security level on the Google account immediately.

The question I have is, how can I make my application more secure so that gmail does not refuse authentication?

Program code shown below. The program is very similar to code in many other Javamail questions on SO.

TryJavamail.java

import java.io.IOException;

import javax.servlet.RequestDispatcher;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

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

public class TryJavamail {

  public static void main(String args[]) throws MessagingException {

    String submitName = "John Doe";
    String submitEmail = "from@example.com";
    String submitMessage = "This is the message";

    Properties props = new Properties();
    props.put("mail.transport.protocol", "smtp");
    props.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
    props.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
    props.setProperty("mail.smtp.ssl.enable", "true");
    props.setProperty("mail.smtp.port", "465");
    Session session = Session.getInstance(props, null);

    session.setDebug(true);

    Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
    message.setSubject("Message from myapp website submit");
    message.setText(submitName + "; " + submitMessage);

    Address toAddress = new InternetAddress(submitEmail);
    message.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, toAddress);

    Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
    transport.connect("smtp.gmail.com", "---userid---", "---password---");
    transport.sendMessage(message, message.getAllRecipients());
    transport.close();
  }
}

回答1:

You probably want to use OAuth2 authentication.

I am including my solution as a separate answer. I had previously edited the question to include this, but the question became too long.

Servlet using OAuth2 authentication below

Shown below is a servlet that uses OAuth2 to send emails from "Contact" form on my website. I followed the instructions provided in the link provided by Bill's answer.

回答3:

how can I make my application more secure so that gmail does not refuse authentication?

One good way in my opinion would be to enable two-way authentication and replace the normal Gmail password with the generated application specific password in your code.

final String smtpServer = "smtp.gmail.com";
final String userAccount = "****@gmail.com"; // Sender Account.
final String password = "****"; // Password -> Application Specific Password.
final String SOCKET_FACTORY = "javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory";
final String smtpPort = "587";
final String PORT = "465";

final Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpServer);
props.put("mail.smtp.user", userAccount);
props.put("mail.smtp.password", password);
props.put("mail.smtp.port", smtpPort);
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", true);
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.debug", "false");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", PORT);
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.class", SOCKET_FACTORY);
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback", "false");

Session session = Session.getInstance(props,
new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
    protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
        return new PasswordAuthentication(userAccount, password);
    }
});
MimeMessage mimeMessage = new MimeMessage(session);
final Address toAddress = new InternetAddress("****@outlook.com"); // toAddress
final Address fromAddress = new InternetAddress(userAccount);
mimeMessage.setContent("This is a test mail...", "text/html; charset=UTF-8");
mimeMessage.setFrom(fromAddress);
mimeMessage.setRecipient(javax.mail.Message.RecipientType.TO, toAddress);
mimeMessage.setSubject("Test Mail...");
Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
transport.connect(smtpServer, userAccount, password);
transport.sendMessage(mimeMessage, mimeMessage.getAllRecipients());
