Spring Email using Office 365

I’m using javamail package in raw format so far. I prefer to split all the communications (email, social media…) and run it as a spring REST API server. Here is the initial code snippet.

Take STS or Eclipse, Start a Spring Starter Project and follow the instructions given below.

Dependencies

Maven Dependencies are given below.

User.java

This is an entity class for the user.

[code language=”java”]

package org.grassfield.msg;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;

/**
* The Class User.
* @author Murugapandian Ramaiah
* @version 1.0
*/
@Component
public class User {
private String email;

public String getEmail() {
return email;
}

public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}

}

[/code]

 

 

MailService.java

As the name implies this is the email sending service.

[code language=”java”]

package org.grassfield.msg;

import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;
import java.net.InetAddress;

import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.mail.SimpleMailMessage;
import org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSender;
import org.springframework.mail.javamail.MimeMessageHelper;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;

@Service
public class MailService {
@Autowired
private JavaMailSender sender;

public void sendEmail (User user) {
SimpleMailMessage mail = new SimpleMailMessage();
mail.setFrom(user.getEmail());
mail.setTo(user.getEmail());
mail.setSubject(“Testing Email Service”);
mail.setText(“Test email content”);
this.sender.send(mail);
}

public void sendEmailWithAttachment(User user) throws MessagingException, UnsupportedEncodingException {
MimeMessage mimeMsg = this.sender.createMimeMessage();
MimeMessageHelper helper = new MimeMessageHelper(mimeMsg, true);
helper.setFrom(new InternetAddress(user.getEmail(), user.getEmail()));
helper.setTo(user.getEmail());
helper.setSubject(“Multipart email”);
helper.setText(“Content of this email”);
this.sender.send(mimeMsg);
}

}

[/code]

 

 

MailController.java

Here is the REST controller.

[code language=”java”]

package org.grassfield.msg;

import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;

import javax.mail.MessagingException;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;

/**
* The Class MailController.
* @author Murugapandian Ramaiah
* @version 1.0
*/
@RestController
public class MailController {

/** The service. */
@Autowired
private MailService service;

/** The user. */
@Autowired
private User user;

@RequestMapping(“test-plain-text-email”)
public String testPlainTextEmail() {
user.setEmail(“recipient@office365 email address”);
service.sendEmail(user);
return “Email sent”;
}

@RequestMapping(“test-multipart-email”)
public String testMultipartEmail() throws MessagingException, UnsupportedEncodingException {
user.setEmail(“recipient@office365 email address”);
service.sendEmailWithAttachment(user);
return “Email sent”;
}

}

[/code]

 

 

application.properties

[code language=”java”]

spring.mail.host = smtp.office365.com
spring.mail.username = user@office 365 account
spring.mail.password = office 365 password
spring.mail.port=587
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.port=587
spring.mail.properties.mail.transport.protocol=smtps
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.auth = true
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.starttls.enable=true
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.starttls.required=true
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.ssl.enable=false
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.timeout=15000
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.connectiontimeout=15000
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback = true
spring.mail.properties.mail.mail.debug=true
spring.mail.properties.mail.pop3.host=pop email address
spring.mail.properties.mail.pop3.port=110
spring.mail.properties.mail.pop3.starttls.enable=true
spring.mail.properties.mail.pop3.store=pop3s
spring.mail.properties.pop.pop3.username=pop username
spring.mail.properties.pop.pop3.password=pop password
spring.mail.properties.pop.pop3.folder=INBOX

[/code]
