Question

I want to send a mail in my java program trough google’s smtp server, but it seems stuck at sending the mail. Can someone tell me why pls?

this is the function to send the mail:

     public void sendMail(){
            String from = "[e-mail]";
    String to = "[e-mail]";
    String subject = "Test";
    String message = "A test message";

    SendMail sendMail = new SendMail(from, to, subject, message);
    sendMail.send();
}

And this is the class

public class SendMail {
private String from;
private String to;
private String subject;
private String text;

public SendMail(String from, String to, String subject, String text){
    this.from = from;
    this.to = to;
    this.subject = subject;
    this.text = text;
}

public void send(){

    Properties props = new Properties();
    props.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
    props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
    props.setProperty( "mail.smtp.port", "587" );
    props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
    Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props);

    new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
    protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
    return new PasswordAuthentication(from, "MyPasswordGoesHere");
    }
      };

  try {
    MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
    message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
    message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));
    message.setSubject(subject);
    message.setText(text);

    Transport.send(message);
    System.out.println("message sent successfully");
    } catch (MessagingException e) {
    throw new RuntimeException(e);
     }
      }
        }

Thanks in advance!
