Hello Friends,
Today, I am sharing another important tutorial. While doing development
some times we came across to this requirement, "Sending emails to users" without
using any built-in mailing app(like: Gmail,Yahoo etc). In that time we normally depends
on web-service, we write a service in PHP or JAVA or .Net and the communicate b/w them.
But, know now no need to depends on web-service we can send the mail directly through
our java code.
This tutorial going to covers following features :
1. Sending email without using any built-in mailing app
2. Sending emails without User Intervention
3. Sending emails to multiple users
4. Sending emails with attachment
5. Sending emails silently without any mail composer
Here are my code:
1. Download java mil.jar, activation.jar and additionnal.jar from below link :
http://code.google.com/p/javamail-android/downloads/list
2. Add this jar files in your project libs folder
3. MainActivity.java
2. Mail.java
Hope this will helps some one.
Enjoy coding... cheers :)
