Hi,

I just want to know possible causes for tomcat throwing an HTTP Status 500 -"illegal address" error...I have done some searches on the net but haven't been able to find information on possible causes for this error...

I have an application that I have created to send out emails....I know the email address that I am using is correct....

Any help is appreciated....

Thanks

500 just means Internal Server Error, if the root cause is an illegal address, then I bet you have an illegal address. You need to catch the exception in your application and get more information out of it.

I'm assuming that the illegal address is the email address that is being used....Is that correct?
I will look into trying to catch the exception.....

Thanks.....
