The JBossAS deploy/mail-service.xml configures a JavaMail session binding into JNDI. Its configurable attributes are:
- JNDIName - the JNDI name under which the javax.mail.Session is bound.
- User - Username used to connect to a mail server
- Password - Password used to connect to a mail server
- Configuration - a container for an xml fragment that specifies the JavaMail provider properties passed to the javax.mail.Session.getInstance() factory method. The format is shown here:
<attribute name="Configuration">
<configuration>
<!-- Change to your mail server prototocol -->
<property name="mail.store.protocol" value="pop3"/>
<property name="mail.transport.protocol" value="smtp"/>
<!-- Change to the user who will receive mail -->
<property name="mail.user" value="nobody"/>
<!-- Change to the mail server -->
<property name="mail.pop3.host" value="pop3.nosuchhost.nosuchdomain.com"/>
<!-- Enable debugging output from the javamail classes -->
<property name="mail.debug" value="false"/>
</configuration>
</attribute>
Hints
- If you want to use SMTP authentication you'll need to add <property name="mail.smtp.auth" value="true"/>
- To use TLS - which secures the transport layer (i.e. authentication data but not the mail itself) - for SMTP you'll need to add <property name="mail.smtp.starttls.enable" value="true"/>
- If you are using TLS, the certificate authority of the certificate used by the mail server should be present in the cacerts keystore (see HOWTO add a certificate authority to the keystore here
)
