So, I've tried the four suggestions:
Paul's "put in properties file": no effect.
This works for me. I added the following properties to my
Properties file:
# JavaMail
mail.store.protocol=smtp
mail.transport.protocol=smtp
mail.smtp.host=xxxx.xxxx.com
# Email address to which bounced messages should be sent
mail.smtp.from=email@hidden
JavaMail is complex. I understand only the bare minimum that
allowed me to build a replacement for WOMailDelivery which can be
unreliable. To make WOMailDelivery easily replaceable, I created a
JavaMailDelivery class that uses JavaMail underneath and
reimplemented WOMailDelivery.composePlainTextEmail() as
JavaMailDelivery.composePlainTextEmail(). I basically copied the
implementation of send() at <http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/
jw-10-2001/jw-1026-javamail.html> adding exception handling where
needed and relying on properties in the Properties file rather than
hard-coding their values. It works fine.
SendFailedException: javax.mail.NoSuchProviderException: smtp
According to the JavaMail javadoc, NoSuchProviderException is
thrown when the JavaMail "Session attempts to instantiate a
Provider that doesn't exist." A Provider is the description of a
protocol implementation. In your case, the "smtp" protocol
implementation doesn't seem to exist. Maybe you need to set the
mail.store.protocol and mail.transport.protocol properties in your
Properties file or maybe your JavaMail implementation is broken. I
have no idea.
Art is correct. You are misinterpreting the meaning of the
exception. It is not saying that it can't find your SMTP server, it
is saying that it has no idea what SMTP _is_. My guess is that this
means one of:
1. You installed mail.jar and activation.jar in the wrong place.
They should be in one of /Library/Java/Extensions or Library/
WebObjects/Extensions.
2. You have conflicting versions of mail.jar and activation.jar in
the directories above or elsewhere
3. One of these files is missing or corrupt
