Sending mail with authentication to Exchange Server 2007

[sunil sushil]

Hello all,

I heard that Exchange server 2007 has a differernt mechanism of authentication.
I am using a simple program to send a test mail to my outlook inbox (exchange server 2007). But it asks for auhentication when i ran it.
Then i tried giving my username and password. But i am still facing the same problem.

*com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPSendFailedException: 530 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated*

*at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.issueSendCommand(SMTPTransport.java:1668)*
*at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.mailFrom(SMTPTransport.java:1207)*
*at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.sendMessage(SMTPTransport.java:735)*
*at javax.mail.Transport.send0(Transport.java:191)*
*at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:120)*
*at SendMailUsingAuthentication.postMail(SendMailUsingAuthentication.java:64)*
*at SendMailUsingAuthentication.main(SendMailUsingAuthentication.java:25)*

I hear that exchange server 2007 has different way of giving username.(with domain name\username)
I tried the same, But i am still getting the same error.

Please help me.

I am adding the price of code:

import java.util.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import javax.activation.*;
import javax.mail.Authenticator;
import javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication;

public class SendingEmail
{
public static void main(String [] args)
{

String to = " [e-mail]";
String from = "[e-mail]";
String host = "43.11.11.11";

String user="ap\\pmtuser";
String pass="password123";
Properties properties = System.getProperties();
System.out.println(user);
// Setup mail server
properties.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
properties.put("mail.user", user);
properties.put("mail.password", pass);
//properties.setProperty("mail.smtp.port", "25");
properties.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
// Get the default Session object.
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties);
try{
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));
message.setSubject("This is the Subject Line!");
message.setText("This is actual message");
Transport.send(message);
//System.out.println("Sent message successfully....");
}catch (Exception mex) {
mex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

I don't think it's anything specific to do with Exchange 2007 or how it requires you to specify user IDs. I think it's just that you don't have any code which does authentication of any kind.

authentication = new PasswordAuthentication(username, password);
}
protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
return authentication;
}
}
}



THis is the class i am using.
Here i have set property as mail.smtp.auth as TRUE.
After searching lot in forums..i hope i have added the authentication part in the code..

Please help me.

Also when i debug the code I get this:

Please use code tags. You can edit your post to add them. Also add them around the debugging output and stack trace.

Also when i debug the code I get this:

I am trying to read the statements here.

I see this line.

DEBUG SMTP: trying to connect to host "43.11.12.13", port 25, isSSL false

It shows that it is able to connect to our exchange server.

The second line:

EHLO INSARDWS-I420
250-INSXHT02.ap.sh.com Hello [43.88.11.11]

This is my machine name (INSARDWS-I420) and I feel hello message from server to my machine IP (INSXHT02.ap.sh.com Hello [43.88.11.11])

Third line:

DEBUG SMTP: mechanism PLAIN not supported by server

I feel there is some issue here : DEBUG SMTP: mechanism LOGIN not supported by server

[ramesh ramineedi]

You need activation.jar, smtp.jar, and mailapi.jar in your classpath for this to work.

[Paul Clapham]

Well, that's a slight improvement. You managed to use code tags for one line of code. The rest is still unformatted, as you should be able to see if you look at your post. So moving along from that code...

sunil sushil wrote:I feel there is some issue here : DEBUG SMTP: mechanism LOGIN not supported by server

I think it's time for you to talk to the administrator of your SMTP server. Ask them why the server isn't supporting any of those login mechanisms.
