Hi!

You can look at:
http://java.sun.com/products/javamail

You'll find the implementation for Java Mail in that site.

Hope this helps.

Hi
Can i get source code for this

Hi
 
I want to get the message from POP3 server.

The program which I used is


//It retrives the messages from POP3 server


import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;

public class GetMessageFromPOP3 {
  public static void main (String args[])
      throws Exception {
    String host = args[0];
    String username = args[1];
    String password = args[2];

    // Get session
    Session session = Session.getInstance(
      System.getProperties(), null);

    // Get the store
    Store store = session.getStore("pop3");
    store.connect(host,110, username, password);

    // With out port no

    //store.connect(host,username, password);

    // Get folder
    Folder folder = store.getFolder("INBOX");
    folder.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);

    // Get directory
    Message message[] = folder.getMessages();
    for (int i=0, n=message.length; i<n; i++) {
       System.out.println(i + ": "
         + message[i].getFrom()[0]
         + "\t" + message[i].getSubject());
    }

    // Close connection
    folder.close(false);
    store.close();
  }
}

But it Gives Error:
C:\javamailcollections>java GetMessageFromPOP3 mail.bigthings.com irapy xyz
Exception in thread "main" javax.mail.NoSuchProviderException: No provider for p
op3
        at javax.mail.Session.getProvider(Session.java:249)
        at javax.mail.Session.getStore(Session.java:323)
        at javax.mail.Session.getStore(Session.java:303)
        at GetMessageFromPOP3.main(GetMessageFromPOP3.java, Compiled Code)

So what should i give in the place of host.
please give me more details about the POP3 Servers.

Hi!

Protocol: pop3
Server: for example pop.mail.yahoo.com

There is a good examples with the JavaMail
(at the \demo folder). I think, it would
help you in this case.

The POP3 provider is not part of the standard JavaMail download. You'll have to download the pop3.jar seperatly and include it in your classpath. I'm pretty sure you can grab it from the java.sun.com site with the other java mail downloads.

Cheers,

Gavin.

Hello,

   Java Beans Avtivation Frame work API will take care about the security restrictions. So, download it and make a class path for that.

   Subjects, Messages, To and Fro addresses any way you will get it thru pop3 protocol. So, you can easily store it on Oracle database. by establishing the jdbc connection.

I will try here and send the source code within a day.
