Programmatically sending emails using IMailerService

Raza Abbas Syed (16●4) | asked Apr 01 '09, 12:23 a.m.

I've been trying to send emails programmatically using IMailerService but its not working for some reason. The email notification is enabled and the jazz server is sending emails. I verified that by sending out team invitations, so the smtp server appears to be in order.

However, when I try to send an email programmatically through a simple snippet of code, it does not work. I tried writing the exception (if any) to a file, but turns out ... it never throws an exception either, since I cant find the file on the server. Here's the code:


			try			&#123;

		IMailerService mailerService = getService&#40;IMailerService.class&#41;;

        mailerService.sendMail&#40;mailerService.getDefaultSender&#40;&#41;, &quot;&lt;my-email-here&gt;&quot;, &quot;Jazz Test Email&quot;, &quot;Test&quot;, &quot;&lt;some-cc-address-here&gt;&quot;&#41;;

			&#125; catch &#40;MessagingException e&#41; &#123;

				// write to a file

				try

				&#123;

					java.io.FileWriter writer = new java.io.FileWriter&#40;&quot;myfile.txt&quot;&#41;;

					java.io.BufferedWriter out = new java.io.BufferedWriter&#40;writer&#41;;

					out.write&#40;e.getMessage&#40;&#41;&#41;;

					out.close&#40;&#41;;

					writer.close&#40;&#41;;

				&#125;

				catch &#40;IOException ex&#41;

				&#123;

					ex.printStackTrace&#40;&#41;;

				&#125;

			&#125;

Thanks!

You have to turn email on in your local workspace. A co-worker sent me these instructions below:

By default, email is not enabled in the RTC development test server (Jetty/Derby) environment. These instructions show how to enable email:

1) Open your server (OSGi Framework) launch configuration. Go to the Arguments tab. Add the text for a new parameter below... make sure you do NOT add any newline characters... just use spaces to separate each VM argument.

-Dcom.ibm.team.server.configURL=file:///{$target_home}/../../server/teamserver.properties

2) Open <RTC>\jazz\server\teamserver.properties in a text editor:

3) Add the following lines to the bottom of the file:

com.ibm.team.repository.notification.mail.enabled=true
com.ibm.team.repository.notification.mail.from_name=jazzdev@us.ibm.com
com.ibm.team.repository.notification.mail.from=jazzdev@us.ibm.com
com.ibm.team.repository.notification.mail.smtp.server=relay.us.ibm.com
com.ibm.team.repository.notification.mail.reply=noreply-jazzdev@us.ibm.com

Good luck!
