import java.security.Security;
import java.util.Properties;

public class GoogleMailSender {

private static final String
SMTP_HOST_NAME = "smtp.gmail.com";
private static final String

// mailin kimden gittiğini gösteren adres

private static final String[]
// mail göndermek istediğimiz adresler
sendTo = {"[email protected]"};

public void sendSSLMessage(String recipients[], String subject,
String message, String from)
throws MessagingException {

props.put("mail.smtp.host", SMTP_HOST_NAME);

Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props,
new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication(){
// buraya gmail mail adresinizi ve sifrenizi girmelisiniz.
return new PasswordAuthentication("[email protected]", "password here");
}
});

Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
InternetAddress addressFrom = new InternetAddress(from);
msg.setFrom(addressFrom);

InternetAddress[]
addressTo = new InternetAddress[recipients.length];
for (int i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++) {
addressTo[i] = new InternetAddress(recipients[i]);
}
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, addressTo);

msg.setSubject(subject);
msg.setContent(message, "text/plain");
Transport.send(msg);
}




public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
new GoogleMailSender().sendSSLMessage(
sendTo, emailSubjectTxt, emailMsgTxt, emailFromAddress);
System.out.println("Sucessfully Sent mail to All Users");
}//end main





}//end class

why not just use Apache's commons mail?

Is there any third party Java Mail APIs available which doesn't use JavaMail API?
