Turns out that JavaMail is a bit more frustrating than I thought it would be. I've looked at several examples online on how to send a simple SMTP email through Gmail's servers (but not through SSL). After trying several different examples of code, I keep concluding to the same example exception when I call transport.connect(). I keep getting this stack trace:
Exception in thread "main" com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPSendFailedException: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. l10sm302158wfk.21
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.issueSendCommand(SMTPTransport.java:2057)
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.mailFrom(SMTPTransport.java:1580)
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.sendMessage(SMTPTransport.java:1097)
at SendEmail.main(SendEmail.java:47)
Can someone please tell me what I should add or do to fix this?
Here is my code:
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.transport.protocol", "smtp");
props.put("mail.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
props.put("mail.user", "blahblah@gmail.com");
props.put("mail.password", "blah");
props.put("mail.port", "587");
Session mailSession = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
Transport transport = mailSession.getTransport();
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(mailSession);
message.setSubject("This is a test");
message.setContent("This is a test", "text/plain");
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("blahblah2@gmail.com"));
transport.connect();
transport.sendMessage(message, message.getRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO));
transport.close();

You need to enable STARTTLS. Add one more property to your configuration:
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
