    Post Outlook and java

    Hi all,

    Am working on a project in which i had to send mails to a list of email ids from a database. But the mail server is running a firewall and blocking any attempt to connect to it using port 25(exchange server), and am not able to connect using java mail api.

    As i had configured the outlook to send mails to exchange, is there any way to create an outlook message object and send mails using outlook (in java). i can be able to find some code snippets using .net, but not in java.

    can anybody provide me a link or a code snippet

    Thanks in advance

    You would need to look into com automation with java. It's doable, you just need to use google.

    Why don't you have a chat with the admins to see if they'll open it for you?

    I talked to the admin, but as its a big establishment, it needs a lot of formalities. So it will be difficult to set it up. I dont have admin rights in the system as well. So i can tinstall a test SMTP server.

    So its better to go for COM automation, ad till now, i dont have any worth links or code snippet. So struck in the middle.
