how to send email periodically using java!

[ug4jee]

Hi All,

I would like to know the code that would send the email to users periodically(eg.,every month end of the day).

Please let me know the ways that can be done using java(and oracle).


Thanks,

Does this help?

You need the JavaMail API, which is part of the Java EE package. You can download the whole Java EE suite, but the only jar files you need are mail.jar and activation.jar. This may be helpful:

Hi,

Thanks for the information provided by you all, it seems to send a mail when we call the postmail().

I need to send the email every month [starting or ending], is it possible.

Please provide your information to achieve this goal.

Thanks in advance,

It sounds like you would want the program set up as a service, and run as a scheduled task from a file server. Is that something doable in your environment?

Yes Hack,

I would like to have a class to send email on end of the day every month.
It has to trigger on that day.

Thanks,
