Problem sending emails from a @WebRemote function

[darius.zagrean]

Hi,

I'm trying to use Renderer to send out an email from inside a WebRemote function and I get this exception: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException. If I call the function from jsf using a button's action it works so I'm almost sure that it has something to do with @WebRemote.

Here are a few code snippets:
Java function:

@WebRemote
public void sendFeedback(String message)
{
 this.message = message;
 try
 {
 renderer.render("/WEB-INF/email-templates/feedback.jsf");
 }
 catch (Exception e)
 {
 log.error(e);
 }
}

JS Function:

function sendFeedback()
{
 var feedbackManager = Seam.Component.getInstance ("feedback");
 feedbackManager.sendFeedback (feedbackDialog.getData().feedbackComments);
}

Any ideas on what is going on wrong?

Thanks a lot,
Darius

I ended up injecting JavaMail directly and now everything works correctly (not the best solution but it gets the job done). Any ideas on why Renderer doesn't work inside @WebRemote?
