Constructor Detail

### SMTPMessage

    public SMTPMessage(Session session)

  Default constructor. An empty message object is created. The `headers` field is set to an empty InternetHeaders object. The `flags` field is set to an empty Flags object. The `modified` flag is set to true.

### SMTPMessage

    public SMTPMessage(Session session,
                       java.io.InputStream is)
                throws MessagingException

  Constructs an SMTPMessage by reading and parsing the data from the specified MIME InputStream. The InputStream will be left positioned at the end of the data for the message. Note that the input stream parse is done within this constructor itself.

  Parameters:
    `session` - Session object for this message
    `is` - the message input stream
  Throws:
    `MessagingException`

### SMTPMessage

    public SMTPMessage(MimeMessage source)
                throws MessagingException

  Constructs a new SMTPMessage with content initialized from the `source` MimeMessage. The new message is independent of the original.

  Note: The current implementation is rather inefficient, copying the data more times than strictly necessary.

  Parameters:
    `source` - the message to copy content from
  Throws:
    `MessagingException`

Method Detail

### setEnvelopeFrom

    public void setEnvelopeFrom(java.lang.String from)

  Set the From address to appear in the SMTP envelope. Note that this is different than the From address that appears in the message itself. The envelope From address is typically used when reporting errors. See RFC 821 for details.

  If set, overrides the `mail.smtp.from` property.

  Parameters:
    `from` - the envelope From address

### getEnvelopeFrom

    public java.lang.String getEnvelopeFrom()

  Return the envelope From address.

  Returns:
    the envelope From address, or null if not set

### setNotifyOptions

    public void setNotifyOptions(int options)

  Set notification options to be used if the server supports Delivery Status Notification (RFC 1891). Either `NOTIFY_NEVER` or some combination of `NOTIFY_SUCCESS`, `NOTIFY_FAILURE`, and `NOTIFY_DELAY`.

  If set, overrides the `mail.smtp.dsn.notify` property.

  Parameters:
    `options` - notification options

### getNotifyOptions

    public int getNotifyOptions()

  Get notification options. Returns zero if no options set.

  Returns:
    notification options

### setReturnOption

    public void setReturnOption(int option)

  Set return option to be used if server supports Delivery Status Notification (RFC 1891). Either `RETURN_FULL` or `RETURN_HDRS`.

  If set, overrides the `mail.smtp.dsn.ret` property.

  Parameters:
    `option` - return option

### getReturnOption

    public int getReturnOption()

  Return return option. Returns zero if no option set.

  Returns:
    return option

### setAllow8bitMIME

    public void setAllow8bitMIME(boolean allow)

  If set to true, and the server supports the 8BITMIME extension, text parts of this message that use the "quoted-printable" or "base64" encodings are converted to use "8bit" encoding if they follow the RFC 2045 rules for 8bit text.

  If true, overrides the `mail.smtp.allow8bitmime` property.

  Parameters:
    `allow` - allow 8-bit flag

### getAllow8bitMIME

    public boolean getAllow8bitMIME()

  Is use of the 8BITMIME extension is allowed?

  Returns:
    allow 8-bit flag

### setSendPartial

    public void setSendPartial(boolean partial)

  If set to true, and this message has some valid and some invalid addresses, send the message anyway, reporting the partial failure with a SendFailedException. If set to false (the default), the message is not sent to any of the recipients if there is an invalid recipient address.

  If true, overrides the `mail.smtp.sendpartial` property.

  Parameters:
    `partial` - send partial flag

### getSendPartial

    public boolean getSendPartial()

  Send message if some addresses are invalid?

  Returns:
    send partial flag

### getSubmitter

    public java.lang.String getSubmitter()

  Gets the submitter to be used for the RFC 2554 AUTH= value in the MAIL FROM command.

  Returns:
    the name of the submitter.

### setSubmitter

    public void setSubmitter(java.lang.String submitter)

  Sets the submitter to be used for the RFC 2554 AUTH= value in the MAIL FROM command. Normally only used by a server that's relaying a message. Clients will typically not set a submitter. See RFC 2554 for details.

  Parameters:
    `submitter` - the name of the submitter

### getMailExtension

    public java.lang.String getMailExtension()

  Gets the extension string to use with the MAIL command.

  Returns:
    the extension string
  Since:
    JavaMail 1.3.2

### setMailExtension

    public void setMailExtension(java.lang.String extension)

  Set the extension string to use with the MAIL command. The extension string can be used to specify standard SMTP service extensions as well as vendor-specific extensions. Typically the application should use the `SMTPTransport` method `supportsExtension` to verify that the server supports the desired service extension. See RFC 1869 and other RFCs that define specific extensions.

  For example:

  >      if (smtpTransport.supportsExtension("DELIVERBY"))
  >         smtpMsg.setMailExtension("BY=60;R");

  Since:
    JavaMail 1.3.2
