I am doing following code to send a email on gmail with javamail.

import java.util.Properties;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

public class JavaApplication1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Properties props = new Properties();
        props.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
        props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", "465");
        props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.class",
                "javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory");
        props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
        props.put("mail.smtp.port", "465");

        Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props,
            new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
                protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
                    return new PasswordAuthentication("goods.ramesh","mypassword");
                }
            });

        try {

            Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
            message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("goods.ramesh@gmail.com"));
            message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
                    InternetAddress.parse("goods.ramesh@yahoo.com"));
            message.setSubject("Testing Subject");
            message.setText("Dear Mail Crawler," +
                    "\n\n No spam to my email, please!");

            Transport.send(message);

            System.out.println("Done");

        } catch (MessagingException e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
    }
}

But I am getting the following error stacktrace :

Exception in thread "main" Java Result: 1

I am not getting what MessagingException is doing and why it occurred.
Can any body help me to get rid of this exception?
