This page explains how to set up the (gmail) mail service for JBoss 4.2.2. with the following features
- smtp over SSL
- TLS encryption
After installing bamboo.war on jboss modify <jboss-install>/server/default/deploy/mail-service.xml to be
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- $Id: mail-service.xml 62349 2007-04-15 16:48:15Z dimitris@jboss.org $ --> <server> <!-- ==================================================================== --> <!-- Mail Connection Factory --> <!-- ==================================================================== --> <mbean code="org.jboss.mail.MailService" name="jboss:service=Mail"> <attribute name="JNDIName">java:/Mail</attribute> <attribute name="User">${account}@gmail.com</attribute> <attribute name="Password">${pw}</attribute> <attribute name="Configuration"> <!-- A test configuration --> <configuration> <!-- Change to your mail server prototocol --> <property name="mail.transport.protocol" value="smtp"/> <!-- Change to the user who will receive mail --> <property name="mail.user" value="${account}@gmail.com"/> <!-- Change to the SMTP gateway server --> <property name="mail.smtp.host" value="smtp.gmail.com"/> <!-- The mail server port --> <property name="mail.smtp.port" value="465"/> <!-- Change to the address mail will be from --> <property name="mail.from" value="${account}@whatever.com"/> <property name="mail.smtp.auth" value="true"/> <property name="mail.smtp.user" value="${account}@gmail.com"/> <property name="mail.smtp.password" value="${pw}"/> <property name="mail.smtp.ssl.enable" value="true"></property> <property name="mail.smtp.socketFactory.class" value="javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory"></property> <property name="mail.smtp.starttls.enable" value="true"/> <!-- Enable debugging output from the javamail classes --> <property name="mail.debug" value="false"/> </configuration> </attribute> <depends>jboss:service=Naming</depends> </mbean> </server>
Problems
If you encounter a class loading problem you will need to remove
- <bamboo-war>/WEB-INF/lib/activation-x.x.x.jar
- <bamboo-war>/WEB-INF/lib/mail-x.x.x.jar
from bamboo.war to avoid the clash with jboss' native libraries.
