My code is:

C#

public class SendMailBySite {
public static void main(String[] args) {

  String host = "host name";//or IP address
  final String user="user name";;//change accordingly
  final String password="XXXXXX";//change accordingly
  
  String to="mail addr";//change accordingly

   //Get the session object
   Properties props = new Properties();
   props.put("mail.smtp.host",host);
   props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
   props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.class", "javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory");
   props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback", "false");
   props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", "465");
   
   Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props,
    new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
      protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
	return new PasswordAuthentication(user,password);
      }
    });

   //Compose the message
    try {
     MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
     message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(user));
     message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,new InternetAddress(to));
     message.setSubject("javatpoint");
     message.setText("This is simple program of sending email using JavaMail API");

    //send the message
     Transport.send(message);

     System.out.println("message sent successfully...");

     } catch (MessagingException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
 }
}

and error is:

C#

Connecting To host_name...Could not open connection to the host, on port 25: Connect failed

Then you have to set up smptp host in your local machine.

Hello,

Can you try with following code. Alternatively if you are using spring framework, then you can try using org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl.

Java

public void doSend(MimeMessage msg, String strHost, int intPort, String strUser, String strPass) {
    String msgId = null;
    Session ses = null;
    Transport trans = null;
 
    try {
        ses = Session.getInstance(new Properties());
        trans = session.getTransport("smtp");
        trans.connect(strHost, intPort, strUser, strPass);
        if (null == msg.getSentDate()) msg.setSentDate(new Date());
        msgId = msg.getMessageID();
        msg.saveChanges();
        if (null == msgId) msg.setHeader(HEADER_MESSAGE_ID, msgId);
        trans.sendMessage(msg, msg.getAllRecipients());
    } catch(AuthenticationFailedException ex) {
        log.error("Unable to authenticate with the mail server!", ex);
    } catch (MessagingException ex) {
        log.error("Unexpected error occurred while sending the message!", ex);
    } finally {
        doCleanup(trans);
        if (ses != null) ses = null;
        if (trans != null) trans = null;
    }
}

private void doCleanup(Transport in) {
    try {
        if (in != null) in.close();
    } catch (MessagingException ex) {
        log.error("Unexpected error occurred while closing the transport!", ex);
    }
}

Solution 2

Do NOT use webservers for testing. They refuse connection when you attempt to often or make mistakes.

Use HmailServer[^] for testing. It's a local emailserver for your machine. Please be aware that this one has also a ban-option (switching off ban function is preferable for development).
