Advanced JSP Sample : Sending Email
Previous Contents Next


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OTN provides three versions of this sample: one using the Java Mail API directly in a JavaBean, one using the sendMail utility tag and one using the utility javabean oracle.jsp.webutil.email.SendMailBean.

Using JSPs and Java Mail API

Purpose
Send email using JSPs and Java Mail API.

Remarks
An HTML form accepts input such as email ID, subject, and message body. When the user clicks the Send button, the JSP invokes SendMailBean to send the email using the JavaMail API. The JSP gets parameter values from the HTTP request object and passes them to the send method in the SendMailBean. This 'send' method uses the JavaMail API to send the mail.

Code from SendMail.jsp
<jsp:useBean id="sendMail" class="SendMailBean" scope="page" /> <% String l_from = request.getParameter("p_from"); String l_to = request.getParameter("p_to"); String l_cc = request.getParameter("p_cc"); String l_subject = request.getParameter("p_subject"); String l_message = request.getParameter("p_message"); %> <%= sendMail.send(l_from, l_to, l_cc, l_subject, l_message) %>

Purpose
Send email using OC4J JSP sendMail tag in the JSPs.

Remarks
An HTML form accepts input such as email ID, subject, and message body. When the user clicks the Send button, the SendMail.jsp using the OC4J JSP sendMail tag sends an email. The SendMail.jsp gets parameter values from the HTTP request object and passes them through the sendMail tag attributes.

Code from SendMail.jsp
...

<% //Read all inputs into local variables String l_from = request.getParameter("p_from"); String l_to = request.getParameter("p_to"); String l_cc = request.getParameter("p_cc"); String l_bcc = request.getParameter("p_bcc"); String l_subject = request.getParameter("p_subject"); String l_message = request.getParameter("p_message"); String l_smtpSvr = request.getParameter("p_smtpServer"); session.setAttribute("smtpServer",l_smtpSvr); %> <%-- Use OC4J Jsp mail tag to send the mail --%> <mail:sendMail host='<%=(String)session.getValue("smtpServer")%>' sender='<%=l_from%>' recipient='<%=l_to%>' cc='<%=l_cc%>' bcc='<%=l_bcc%>' subject='<%=l_subject%>'> <%=l_message%> </mail:sendMail>...

Purpose
Send email using JSPs using OC4J JSP utility JavaBean.

Remarks
An HTML form accepts input such as email ID, subject, and message body. When the user clicks the Send button, the JSP invokes SendMailBean to send the email using the JavaMail API. The JSP gets parameter values from the HTTP request object and sets them in the OC4J JSP Utility JavaBean, oracle.jsp.webutil.email.SendMailBean. Then, the JSP calls the 'sendMessage' method in the Bean which sends the mail using the values set earlier.

Code from SendMail.jsp
...<jsp:useBean id="sendMail" class="oracle.jsp.webutil.email.SendMailBean"
scope="page" /><% String l_from = request.getParameter("p_from"); String l_to = request.getParameter("p_to"); String l_cc = request.getParameter("p_cc"); String l_bcc = request.getParameter("p_bcc"); String l_subject = request.getParameter("p_subject"); String l_message = request.getParameter("p_message"); String l_smtpSvr = request.getParameter("p_smtpServer"); session.setAttribute("smtpServer",l_smtpSvr);

//set the mail server host sendMail.setHost(l_smtpSvr);
//set sender address sendMail.setSender(l_from);
//set the recipient(s) sendMail.setRecipient(l_to);
//set Cc address sendMail.setCc(l_cc);

//set Bcc address sendMail.setBcc(l_bcc);
//set Subject of the email sendMail.setSubject(l_subject);

//set body of the mail sendMail.setContent(l_message);

//send the email sendMail.sendMessage(pageContext);%>...

You're going to want to use the javamail interface provided by J2EE. What Servlet container are you using to generate your jsps? Most include an implementation of the mail interfaces as well.

The interace is really simple to use.. Sun has a good tutorial at http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/JavaMail/
