Description

The SMTP protocol provider supports the following properties.

Note that if you're using the "smtps" protocol to access SMTP over SSL, all the properties would be named "mail.smtps.*".

The following table shows this properties:

Name Type Description
mail.smtp.user String Default user name for SMTP
mail.smtp.host String The SMTP server to connect to
mail.smtp.port int The SMTP server port to connect to, if the connect() method doesn't explicitly specify one.
Defaults to 25
mail.smtp.connectiontimeout int Socket connection timeout value in milliseconds. Default is infinite timeout
mail.smtp.timeout int Socket I/O timeout value in milliseconds. Default is infinite timeout
mail.smtp.from String Email address to use for SMTP MAIL command. This sets the envelope return address. Defaults to msg.getFrom() or InternetAddress.getLocalAddress().
NOTE: mail.smtp.user was previously used for this.
mail.smtp.localhost String Local host name used in the SMTP HELO or EHLO command.
Defaults to InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName().
Should not normally need to be set if your JDK and your name service are configured properly
mail.smtp.localaddress String Local address (host name) to bind to when creating the SMTP socket.
Defaults to the address picked by the Socket class.
Should not normally need to be set, but useful with multi-homed hosts where it's important to pick a particular local address to bind to
mail.smtp.localport int Local port number to bind to when creating the SMTP socket. Defaults to the port number picked by the Socket class
mail.smtp.ehlo boolean If false, do not attempt to sign on with the EHLO command. Defaults to true. Normally failure of the EHLO command will fallback to the HELO command; this property exists only for servers that don't fail EHLO properly or don't implement EHLO properly
mail.smtp.auth boolean If true, attempt to authenticate the user using the AUTH command.

Defaults to false.

mail.smtp.auth.mechanisms String If set, lists the authentication mechanisms to consider, and the order in which to consider them. Only mechanisms supported by the server and supported by the current implementation will be used. The default is "LOGIN PLAIN DIGEST- MD5 NTLM", which includes all the authentication mechanisms supported by the current implementation
mail.smtp.auth.ntlm.domain String The NTLM authentication domain
mail.smtp.auth.ntlm.flags int http://curl.haxx.se/rfc/ntlm.html#theNtlmFlags ] for details.
mail.smtp.submitter String The submitter to use in the AUTH tag in the MAIL FROM command.
Typically used by a mail relay to pass along information about the original submitter of the message.
See also the setSubmitter method of SMTPMessage. Mail clients typically do not use this.
mail.smtp.dsn.notify String The NOTIFY option to the RCPT command. Either NEVER, or some combination of SUCCESS, FAILURE, and DELAY (separated by commas).
mail.smtp.dsn.ret String The RET option to the MAIL command. Either FULL or HDRS.
mail.smtp.allow8bitmime boolean If set to true, and the server supports the 8BITMIME extension, text parts of messages that use the "quoted-printable" or "base64" encodings are converted to use "8bit" encoding if they follow the RFC2045 rules for 8bit text.
mail.smtp.sendpartial boolean If set to true, and a message has some valid and some invalid addresses, send the message anyway, reporting the partial failure with a SendFailedException.
If set to false (the default), the message is not sent to any of the recipients if there is an invalid recipient address.
mail.smtp.sasl.realm String The realm to use with DIGEST-MD5 authentication.
mail.smtp.quitwait boolean If set to false, the QUIT command is sent and the connection is immediately closed.
If set to true (the default), causes the transport to wait for the response to the QUIT command.
mail.smtp.reportsuccess boolean If set to true, causes the transport to include an SMTPAddressSucceededException for each address that is successful.
Note also that this will cause a SendFailedException to be thrown from the sendMessage method of SMTPTransport even if all addresses were correct and the message was sent successfully.
mail.smtp.socketFactory SocketFactory If set to a class that implements the javax.net.SocketFactory interface, this class will be used to create SMTP sockets.
Note that this is an instance of a class, not a name, and must be set using the put method, not the setProperty method.
mail.smtp.socketFactory.class String If set, specifies the name of a class that implements the javax.net.SocketFactory interface. This class will be used to create SMTP sockets.
mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback boolean If set to true, failure to create a socket using the specified socket factory class will cause the socket to be created using the java.net.Socket class. Defaults to true.
mail.smtp.socketFactory.port int Specifies the port to connect to when using the specified socket factory. If not set, the default port will be used.
mail.smtp.ssl.enable boolean If set to true, use SSL to connect and use the SSL port by default.
Defaults to false for the "smtp" protocol and true for the "smtps" protocol.
mail.smtp.ssl.checkserveridentity boolean If set to true, check the server identity as specified by RFC 2595. These additional checks based on the content of the server's certificate are intended to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. Defaults to false.
mail.smtp.ssl.trust String If set, and a socket factory hasn't been specified, enables use of a MailSSLSocketFactory.
If set to "*", all hosts are trusted. If set to a whitespace separated list of hosts, those hosts are trusted. Otherwise, trust depends on the certificate the server presents.
mail.smtp.ssl.socketFactory SSLSocketFactory If set to a class that extends the javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory class, this class will be used to create SMTP SSL sockets.
Note that this is an instance of a class, not a name, and must be set using the put method, not the setProperty method.
mail.smtp.ssl.socketFactory.class String If set, specifies the name of a class that extends the javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory class. This class will be used to create SMTP SSL sockets.
mail.smtp.ssl.socketFactory.port int Specifies the port to connect to when using the specified socket factory. If not set, the default port will be used.
mail.smtp.ssl.protocols string Specifies the SSL protocols that will be enabled for SSL connections. The property value is a whitespace separated list of tokens acceptable to the javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket.setEnabledProtocols method.
mail.smtp.ssl.ciphersuites string Specifies the SSL cipher suites that will be enabled for SSL connections. The property value is a whitespace separated list of tokens acceptable to the javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket.setEnabledCipherSuites method.
mail.smtp.mailextension String Extension string to append to the MAIL command. The extension string can be used to specify standard SMTP service extensions as well as vendor-specific extensions. Typically the application should use the SMTPTransport method supportsExtension to verify that the server supports the desired service extension. See RFC 1869 and other RFCs that define specific extensions.
mail.smtp.starttls.enable boolean If true, enables the use of the STARTTLS command (if supported by the server) to switch the connection to a TLS-protected connection before issuing any login commands. Note that an appropriate trust store must configured so that the client will trust the server's certificate. Defaults to false.
mail.smtp.starttls.required boolean If true, requires the use of the STARTTLS command. If the server doesn't support the STARTTLS command, or the command fails, the connect method will fail. Defaults to false.
mail.smtp.userset boolean If set to true, use the RSET command instead of the NOOP command in the isConnected method. In some cases sendmail will respond slowly after many NOOP commands; use of RSET avoids this sendmail issue. Defaults to false.
mail.smtp.noop.strict boolean If set to true (the default), insist on a 250 response code from the NOOP command to indicate success. The NOOP command is used by the isConnected method to determine if the connection is still alive. Some older servers return the wrong response code on success, some servers don't implement the NOOP command at all and so always return a failure code. Set this property to false to handle servers that are broken in this way. Normally, when a server times out a connection, it will send a 421 response code, which the client will see as the response to the next command it issues. Some servers send the wrong failure response code when timing out a connection. Do not set this property to false when dealing with servers that are broken in this way.


The POP3 protocol provider supports the following properties.

Note that if you're using the "pop3s" protocol to access POP3 over SSL, all the properties would be named "mail.pop3s.*".

The following table shows this properties:

Name Type Description
mail.pop3.user String Default user name for POP3.
mail.pop3.password String GreenVulcano user password for POP3.
mail.pop3.host String The POP3 server to connect to.
mail.pop3.port int The POP3 server port to connect to, if the connect() method doesn't explicitly specify one. Defaults to 110.
mail.pop3.connectiontimeout int Socket connection timeout value in milliseconds. Default is infinite timeout.
mail.pop3.timeout int Socket I/O timeout value in milliseconds. Default is infinite timeout.
mail.pop3.rsetbeforequit boolean Send a POP3 RSET command when closing the folder, before sending the QUIT command. Useful with POP3 servers that implicitly mark all messages that are read as "deleted"; this will prevent such messages from being deleted and expunged unless the client requests so. Default is false.
mail.pop3.message.class String Class name of a subclass of com.sun.mail.pop3.POP3Message. The subclass can be used to handle (for example) non-standard Content-Type headers. The subclass must have a public constructor of the form MyPOP3Message(Folder f, int msgno) throws MessagingException.
mail.pop3.localaddress String Local address (host name) to bind to when creating the POP3 socket. Defaults to the address picked by the Socket class. Should not normally need to be set, but useful with multi-homed hosts where it's important to pick a particular local address to bind to.
mail.pop3.localport int Local port number to bind to when creating the POP3 socket. Defaults to the port number picked by the Socket class.
mail.pop3.apop.enable boolean If set to true, use APOP instead of USER/PASS to login to the POP3 server, if the POP3 server supports APOP. APOP sends a digest of the password rather than the clear text password. Defaults to false.
mail.pop3.socketFactory SocketFactory If set to a class that implements the javax.net.SocketFactory interface, this class will be used to create POP3 sockets. Note that this is an instance of a class, not a name, and must be set using the put method, not the setProperty method.
mail.pop3.socketFactory.class String If set, specifies the name of a class that implements the javax.net.SocketFactory interface. This class will be used to create POP3 sockets.
mail.pop3.socketFactory.fallback boolean If set to true, failure to create a socket using the specified socket factory class will cause the socket to be created using the java.net.Socket class. Defaults to true.
mail.pop3.socketFactory.port int Specifies the port to connect to when using the specified socket factory. If not set, the default port will be used.
mail.pop3.ssl.enable boolean If set to true, use SSL to connect and use the SSL port by default. Defaults to false for the "pop3" protocol and true for the "pop3s" protocol.
mail.pop3.ssl.checkserveridentity boolean If set to true, check the server identity as specified by RFC 2595. These additional checks based on the content of the server's certificate are intended to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. Defaults to false.
mail.pop3.ssl.trust String If set, and a socket factory hasn't been specified, enables use of a MailSSLSocketFactory. If set to "*", all hosts are trusted. If set to a whitespace separated list of hosts, those hosts are trusted. Otherwise, trust depends on the certificate the server presents.
mail.pop3.ssl.socketFactory SSLSocketFactory If set to a class that extends the javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory class, this class will be used to create POP3 SSL sockets. Note that this is an instance of a class, not a name, and must be set using the put method, not the setProperty method.
mail.pop3.ssl.socketFactory.class String If set, specifies the name of a class that extends the javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory class. This class will be used to create POP3 SSL sockets.
mail.pop3.ssl.socketFactory.port int Specifies the port to connect to when using the specified socket factory. If not set, the default port will be used.
mail.pop3.ssl.protocols String Specifies the SSL protocols that will be enabled for SSL connections. The property value is a whitespace separated list of tokens acceptable to the javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket.setEnabledProtocols method.
mail.pop3.ssl.ciphersuites String Specifies the SSL cipher suites that will be enabled for SSL connections. The property value is a whitespace separated list of tokens acceptable to the javax.net.ssl.SSLSocket.setEnabledCipherSuites method.
mail.pop3.starttls.enable boolean If true, enables the use of the STLS command (if supported by the server) to switch the connection to a TLS-protected connection before issuing any login commands. Note that an appropriate trust store must configured so that the client will trust the server's certificate. Defaults to false.
mail.pop3.starttls.required boolean If true, requires the use of the STLS command. If the server doesn't support the STLS command, or the command fails, the connect method will fail. Defaults to false.
mail.pop3.socks.host String Specifies the host name of a SOCKS5 proxy server that will be used for connections to the mail server. (Note that this only works on JDK 1.5 or newer.)
mail.pop3.socks.port String Specifies the port number for the SOCKS5 proxy server. This should only need to be used if the proxy server is not using the standard port number of 1080.
mail.pop3.disabletop boolean If set to true, the POP3 TOP command will not be used to fetch message headers. This is useful for POP3 servers that don't properly implement the TOP command, or that provide incorrect information in the TOP command results. Defaults to false.
mail.pop3.disablecapa boolean If set to true, the POP3 CAPA command will not be used to fetch server capabilities. This is useful for POP3 servers that don't properly implement the CAPA command, or that provide incorrect information in the CAPA command results. Defaults to false.
mail.pop3.forgettopheaders boolean If set to true, the headers that might have been retrieved using the POP3 TOP command will be forgotten and replaced by headers retrieved as part of the POP3 RETR command. Some servers, such as some versions of Microsft Exchange and IBM Lotus Notes, will return slightly different headers each time the TOP or RETR command is used. To allow the POP3 provider to properly parse the message content returned from the RETR command, the headers also returned by the RETR command must be used. Setting this property to true will cause these headers to be used, even if they differ from the headers returned previously as a result of using the TOP command. Defaults to false.
mail.pop3.filecache.enable boolean If set to true, the POP3 provider will cache message data in a temporary file rather than in memory. Messages are only added to the cache when accessing the message content. Message headers are always cached in memory (on demand). The file cache is removed when the folder is closed or the JVM terminates. Defaults to false.
mail.pop3.filecache.dir String If the file cache is enabled, this property can be used to override the default directory used by the JDK for temporary files.
mail.pop3.cachewriteto boolean Controls the behavior of the writeTo method on a POP3 message object. If set to true, and the message content hasn't yet been cached, and ignoreList is null, the message is cached before being written. Otherwise, the message is streamed directly to the output stream without being cached. Defaults to false.
mail.pop3.keepmessagecontent boolean The content of a message is cached when it is first fetched. Normally this cache uses a SoftReference to refer to the cached content. This allows the cached content to be purged if memory is low, in which case the content will be fetched again if it's needed. If this property is set to true, a hard reference to the cached content will be kept, preventing the memory from being reused until the folder is closed or the cached content is explicitly invalidated (using the invalidate method). (This was the behavior in previous versions of JavaMail.) Defaults to false.
