Answer 1

Check this package out. From the link, here's a code sample:

Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "my-mail-server");
props.put("mail.from", "me@example.com");
Session session = Session.getInstance(props, null);

try {
    MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
    msg.setFrom();
    msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
                      "you@example.com");
    msg.setSubject("JavaMail hello world example");
    msg.setSentDate(new Date());
    msg.setText("Hello, world!\n");
    Transport.send(msg);
} catch (MessagingException mex) {
    System.out.println("send failed, exception: " + mex);
}
