Question

I\'m trying to use Exchange authentication from my app using JavaMail to do this. Could some one give me a guide to do this? After authentication I need to send mails that\'

Answer 1

It is a good question! I have solved this issue.

First, you should import the jar ews-java-api-2.0.jar. if you use maven, you would add the following code into your pom.xml

  com.microsoft.ews-java-api
  ews-java-api
  2.0

Secondly, you should new java class named MailUtil.java.Some Exchange Servers don't start SMTP service by default, so we use Microsoft Exchange WebServices(EWS) instead of SMTP service.

MailUtil.java

package com.spacex.util;


import microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.core.ExchangeService;
import microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.core.enumeration.misc.ExchangeVersion;
import microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.core.service.item.EmailMessage;
import microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.credential.ExchangeCredentials;
import microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.credential.WebCredentials;
import microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.property.complex.MessageBody;
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

import java.net.URI;

/**
 * Exchange send email util
 *
 * @author vino.dang
 * @create 2017/01/08
 */
public class MailUtil {

    private static Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MailUtil.class);



    /**
     * send emial
     * @return
     */
    public static boolean sendEmail() {

        Boolean flag = false;
        try {
            ExchangeService service = new ExchangeService(ExchangeVersion.Exchange2010_SP1); // your server version
            ExchangeCredentials credentials = new WebCredentials("vino", "abcd123", "spacex"); // change them to your email username, password, email domain
            service.setCredentials(credentials);
            service.setUrl(new URI("https://outlook.spacex.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx")); //outlook.spacex.com change it to your email server address
            EmailMessage msg = new EmailMessage(service);
            msg.setSubject("This is a test!!!"); //email subject
            msg.setBody(MessageBody.getMessageBodyFromText("This is a test!!! pls ignore it!")); //email body
            msg.getToRecipients().add("123@hotmail.com"); //email receiver
//        msg.getCcRecipients().add("test2@test.com"); // email cc recipients
//        msg.getAttachments().addFileAttachment("D:\\Downloads\\EWSJavaAPI_1.2\\EWSJavaAPI_1.2\\Getting started with EWS Java API.RTF"); // email attachment
            msg.send(); //send email
            flag = true;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        return flag;

    }


    public static void main(String[] args) {

        sendEmail();

    }
}
