I am using Java mail API to send email through my java application. But I want to send it automatically on future date i.e. any specific date of every month/year. I have used my ISP's SMTP server to send email on mentioned id.I have referred the below available example on net. How to set any specific date here.I have tried SimpleDateFormat and set it here but it still sends mail immediately but set its sent date as mentioned specific date. Is there any other way to send automatic email on mentioned date and time?
import java.util.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import javax.activation.*;
// Send a simple, single part, text/plain e-mail
public class TestEmail {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// SUBSTITUTE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESSES HERE!!!
String to = "abc@abc.com";
String from = "abc@abc.com";
// SUBSTITUTE YOUR ISP'S MAIL SERVER HERE!!!
String host = "smtp.yourisp.net";
// Create properties, get Session
Properties props = new Properties();
// If using static Transport.send(),
// need to specify which host to send it to
props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
// To see what is going on behind the scene
props.put("mail.debug", "true");
Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
try {
// Instantiatee a message
Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
//Set message attributes
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
InternetAddress[] address = {new InternetAddress(to)};
msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, address);
msg.setSubject("Test E-Mail through Java");
msg.setSentDate(new Date());
// Set message content
msg.setText("This is a test of sending a " +
"plain text e-mail through Java.
" +
"Here is line 2.");
//Send the message
Transport.send(msg);
}
catch (MessagingException mex) {
// Prints all nested (chained) exceptions as well
mex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}//End of class
