You might want to check your classpath, too ... That it's saying
there's no SMTP provider sounds like you might have the javamail API
jar file in your classpath, but not the reference implementation jar
files that actually include the SMTP implementation code?

I am trying to set the SMTP host for JavaMail. I have attempted
set the properties in the Application, in the component, and in
Resources->Properties. None of these approaches seems to get the

In the Application() using this code:
public Application() {
super();
Properties props = System.getProperties();
//Specify the desired SMTP server
props.put( "WOSMTPHost", "smtp.comcast.net" );
props.put( "mail.smtp.host", "smtp.comcast.net" );
}
Drew,
You code only changes the values inside the "props" object that you
got back as a result of the System.getProperties() call. You need
to set them back into the system by using the System.setProperties
( Properties ) call, or two calls to System.setProperty( String,
String ).
Alternatively, you can specify the properties outside of the code
in two places. First, in the Properties file that is located inside
the .woa bundle at MyApp.woa/Contents/Resources/Properties, you can
put the lines:
WOSMTPHost=smtp.comcast.net
mail.smtp.host=smtp.comcast.net
just as written and they will set the WOSMTPHost and mail.smtp.host
properties for the application. Alternatively, you can launch the
application with the arguments:
-DWOSMTPHost=smtp.comcast.net -Dmail.smtp.host=smtp.comcast.net
in addition to any other launch arguments and the properties will
be set. Note that there is no space between the "-D" and the
property name, and that any characters that will cause problems for
the shell will need to be escaped or quoted.
In general, setting properties through code is discouraged -- much
better to do it from the Properties file for properties that don't
change frequently and from launch arguments for those that do
change frequently. BTW, property values specified on the command
line override those specified in the Properties file. See the WO
API docs on NSProperties for more details.
