Java mail problem in IE

[mallikarjun dontamsetti]

Hi i have implemented some code to send mail in java it is working in chrome and firrfox. But in IE it is showing empty page my code is

public boolean sendMail(String recipient, String subject,String message) {


  
    Properties props = new Properties();
    props.put("mail.smtp.host",SMTP_HOST_NAME);
    props.put("mail.smtp.auth","true");
    props.put("mail.smtp.timeout","100000");
  
    
  try {
        Authenticator auth = new SMTPAuthenticatorHere();    
        Session session = Session.getInstance(props, auth);
      
      Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
    

      InternetAddress[] toaddress =  InternetAddress.parse(recipient);
     
      msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(SMTP_AUTH_USER));
      msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, toaddress);
      msg.setSubject(subject);
      msg.setSentDate(new Date());
      msg.setContent(message,"text/plain");

      Transport.send(msg);
      return true;
    }catch(AddressException e){
      e.printStackTrace();
      return false;
    }
  catch(MessagingException x){
      x.printStackTrace();
      return false;
    }catch(Exception mex) {
    mex.printStackTrace();
      return false;
    }

It is called in my servlet like this

          boolean x = sm.sendMail(mail, subject, messageText);
          if(x){
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Success");//for testing only
           response.sendRedirect("backtologin.jsp");
          }else{
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"fail");//for testing only
            session.setAttribute("errorlogin","There is an error in sending mail please try after some time");
            response.sendRedirect("employerlogin.jsp");
          }

Please help me with this

What do you get on the printStackTrace()?
Also, I hope you realize, the JOptionPane.showXXXDialog will be executed on the server side and your client will never see it.

Moving to a more appropriate forum

I IE it is showing a blank page with same URL as chrome and firefox. But in chrome and firefox showing the page correctly. Is there any problem with IE browser session closing
FYI : My page taking nearly 30 sec to display next page in chrome and firefox

Nothing in my printStackTrace(). the problem is with IE 9 browser only(i have to test lower versions of IE). am i need to change some settings in my IE

We are asking because we suspect that your server code (what you posted) is throwing an exception, and that different browsers are interpreting a combination of partial HTML code plus a 500-level error code differently. You never have to configure the browser to receive normal HTML responses, so it looks like you aren't sending a normal HTML response.

So there are several things you should be looking into. Does your server code throw an exception, or is the e-mail sent successfully? Are you sending any HTML at all as your response? What is the response code sent by your code: 200 for normal, or something else? You'll notice that all of this is at the server side; the browser should have nothing to do with it.

There are no errors the mail is sending well wheen i use chorm or firefox but in IE it is not showing any error and mail also not going.

[Paul Clapham]

Let's clarify. You casually mentioned a "servlet" and we are therefore assuming that IE, Firefox, and so on are browsers which are sending the request to a server, which is where the servlet runs. Is that correct? Because you are continually going on about the browsers, as if this code is perhaps in an applet or something like that.
