public class SimpleSenderServlet extends HttpServlet {

public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException {
this.doService(request, response);
}

public void doPost(
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException {
this.doService(request, response);
}

public void doService(
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException {

String recipients[] =

String recipientsCC[] = {"[email protected]"};
String from = "[email protected]";
String host = "172.19.31.189";
String filename =
"C:\\Documents and Settings\\vraju.SYNTELDCX\\Desktop\\aqua.jpeg";
String msgText1 = "Sending a file.\n";
String subject = "Sending a file";

Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);

Session session = Session.getInstance(props, null);

try {

MimeMessage msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
InternetAddress[] addressTo =
new InternetAddress[recipients.length];
for (int i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++) {
addressTo[i] = new InternetAddress(recipients[i]);
}
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, addressTo);
InternetAddress[] addressCC =
new InternetAddress[recipientsCC.length];
for (int i = 0; i < recipientsCC.length; i++) {
addressCC[i] = new InternetAddress(recipientsCC[i]);
}
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.CC, addressCC);
msg.setSubject(subject);

MimeBodyPart mbp1 = new MimeBodyPart();
mbp1.setText(msgText1);

MimeBodyPart mbp2 = new MimeBodyPart();

FileDataSource fds = new FileDataSource(filename);
mbp2.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(fds));
mbp2.setFileName(fds.getName());

Multipart mp = new MimeMultipart();
mp.addBodyPart(mbp1);
mp.addBodyPart(mbp2);

msg.setContent(mp);
msg.setSentDate(new Date());

Transport.send(msg);

} catch (MessagingException mex) {
mex.printStackTrace();
Exception ex = null;
if ((ex = mex.getNextException()) != null) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}

}
}

If you are using JavaMail 1.3 or earlier, there is a ByteArrayDataSource class in the "demo" directory of your JavaMail download. You could use that. In JavaMail 1.4 that class is built in (the javax.mail.util package).
