Hello,
Could someone give me an example or steps how to send an email from EJB3 session bean?

Thanks a lot,

Inject the java:/Mail object (or look it up via JNDI) to get a mail session. (You have to configure it first.)...

... or use some simplified library like commons-mail.

Hi,
How do I inject the resource? Any library I need to download?
I tried to do this but it did not work.

@Resource
private javax.mail.Session session;

It complains javax.mail.Session is not found.


Thanks a lot,

You can do a simple context lookup of the /Mail object in JNDI space. Please use the JMX console and dump your JNDI view to make sure its registered. Look in $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy for a mail-service.xml file which configures the mail service.

Hi,
I managed to send an email. I download the JavaMail jar and include into my project then the complain of the javax.mail.Session is gone.

Thanks,
