How do I send an email using my Outlook account?
I am trying to use this code:
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Properties;
import javax.mail.Message;
import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication;
import javax.mail.Session;
import javax.mail.Transport;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;
public class NewClass {
public static void main(String[]args)throws IOException {
final String username = "prashantsood_90";
final String password = "password";
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "outlook.office365.com");
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");
Session session = Session.getInstance(props,
new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password);
}
});
try {
Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("prashantsood_90@outlook.com"));
message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
InternetAddress.parse("prashantsood_90@outlook.com"));
message.setSubject("Test");
message.setText("HI");
Transport.send(message);
System.out.println("Done");
} catch (MessagingException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
}
This is an exception:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: javax.mail.SendFailedException: Sending failed;
nested exception is:
class javax.mail.MessagingException: 530 5.7.57 SMTP; Client was not authenticated to send anonymous mail during MAIL FROM

Try to write your own Authenticator
class
import javax.mail.Authenticator;
import javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication;
public class SMTPAuthenticator extends Authenticator {
private String userName;
private String password;
public void setUserName(String userName) {
this.userName = userName;
}
public String getUserName() {
return userName;
}
public void setPassword(String password) {
this.password = password;
}
public String getPassword() {
return password;
}
public SMTPAuthenticator(String userName,String password){
this.userName=userName;
this.password=password;
}
public PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication()
{
return new PasswordAuthentication(userName, password);
}
}
Then use it to create a session:
SMTPAuthenticator authenticator = new SMTPAuthenticator(username, password);
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.submitter", authenticator.getPasswordAuthentication().getUserName());
properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", "outlook.office365.com");
properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.port", "587");
Session session = Session.getInstance(properties, authenticator);
Also remove this line if you don't have a secure TSL connection
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
