I am making use of Java Mail API to develop an app to send mail. I can successfully send the mail if I use the mail server hosting by yahoo or gmail. However, when I try to use my own mail server, I am fail to send the mail, what are the possible reasons causing the failure? When I execute my app in my device, it displays "Email was not sent", so no exception occurs. May I ask how can I change my program so I can successfully connect my app to my smtp server, or how can I get more information to display therefore I can understand why the connection has failed.
Here is my program: Sender.java
public class Sender extends Activity {
Button Send;
TextView text;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_sender);
Send = (Button) findViewById(R.id.mail);
text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder()
.permitAll().build();
StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
Send.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
new SendMail().execute();
}
});
}
private class SendMail extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Integer>
{
ProgressDialog pd = null;
String error = null;
Integer result;
@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPreExecute();
pd = new ProgressDialog(Sender.this);
pd.setTitle("Sending Mail");
pd.setMessage("Please wait...");
pd.setCancelable(false);
pd.show();
}
@Override
protected Integer doInBackground(String... params) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
MailSender sender = new MailSender("me@mysmtp.com", "password");
sender.setTo(new String[]{"you@mysmtp.com", "me@gmail.com"});
sender.setFrom("me@mysmtp.com");
sender.setSubject("Test mail");
sender.setBody("This is the mail body");
try {
if(sender.send()) {
System.out.println("Message sent");
return 1;
} else {
return 2;
}
} catch (Exception e) {
error = e.getMessage();
Log.e("SendMail", e.getMessage(), e);
}
return 3;
}
protected void onPostExecute(Integer result) {
pd.dismiss();
if(error!=null) {
text.setText(error);
}
if(result==1) {
Toast.makeText(Sender.this,
"Email was sent successfully.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
} else if(result==2) {
Toast.makeText(Sender.this,
"Email was not sent.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else if(result==3) {
Toast.makeText(Sender.this,
"There was a problem sending the email.",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
