Question

The code below works well

But, my question is how can set the ‘javaMailProperties’ programaticaly ?
Because I would like to set ssl/tsl from the code. I could not access these properties, I dont know why, thanks for the solution and explanation.

SimpleMailMessage message=(SimpleMailMessage)SpringUtil.getContext().
getBean("templateMessage");

JavaMailSenderImpl mailSender = (JavaMailSenderImpl)SpringUtil.getContext()
.getBean("mailSender"); 

mailSender.send(message);

--applicationcontext.xml--

<bean id="mailSender" class="org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl">
   <property name="host" value="smtp.gmail.com"/>
   <property name="port" value="587"/>
   <property name="username" value="your gmail address"/>
   <property name="password" value="your password"/>        

   <property name="javaMailProperties">
    <props>
        <prop key="mail.smtp.auth">true</prop>
        <prop key="mail.smtp.starttls.enable">true</prop>
    </props>
</property>

 </bean>

<bean id="templateMessage" class="org.springframework.mail.SimpleMailMessage" >
<property name="from" value="[e-mail]"/>
    <property name="to" value="[e-mail]"/>              
    <property name="subject" value="subject"/>
    <property name="text" value="hello"/>               
 </bean>

(I dont want to use javax.mail approach, it was asked)

Answer 1

Use:

mailSender.getJavaMailProperties().setProperty("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");

Same for other properties that you want to set programatically.

EDIT:

I checked the source code for the JavaMailSenderImpl class:

/**
 * Allow Map access to the JavaMail properties of this sender,
 * with the option to add or override specific entries.
 * <p>Useful for specifying entries directly, for example via
 * "javaMailProperties[mail.smtp.auth]".
 */
public Properties getJavaMailProperties() {
    return this.javaMailProperties;
}

As you can see, the getJavaMailProperties is a public method and should be available to you. My Spring framework version is 3.0.5.
