# Simple Java Mail #
Simple Java Mail is the simplest to use lightweight mailing library for Java, while being able to send complex emails including **[Batch processing and server clusters](https://www.simplejavamail.org/configuration.html#section-batch-and-clustering)**, **[CLI support](https://www.simplejavamail.org/cli.html#navigation)**, **[authenticated socks proxy](https://www.simplejavamail.org/features.html#section-proxy)**(!), **[attachments](https://www.simplejavamail.org/features.html#section-attachments)**, **[embedded images](https://www.simplejavamail.org/features.html#section-embedding)**, **[custom headers and properties](https://www.simplejavamail.org/features.html#section-custom-headers)**, **[robust address validation](https://www.simplejavamail.org/features.html#section-email-validation)**, **[build pattern](https://www.simplejavamail.org/features.html#section-builder-api)** and even **[DKIM signing](https://www.simplejavamail.org/features.html#section-dkim)**, **[S/MIME support](https://www.simplejavamail.org/features.html#section-sending-smime)** and **[external configuration files](https://www.simplejavamail.org/configuration.html#section-config-properties)**, **[Spring support](https://www.simplejavamail.org/configuration.html#section-spring-support)** and **[Email conversion](https://www.simplejavamail.org/features.html#section-converting)** tools (including support for Outlook).
Just send your emails without dealing with [RFCs](https://www.simplejavamail.org/rfc-compliant.html#navigation).
The Simple Java Mail library is a thin layer on top of [Angus Mail](https://eclipse-ee4j.github.io/angus-mail/) (previously [Jakarta Mail](https://jakartaee.github.io/mail-api/README-JakartaMail)) that allows users to define emails on a high abstraction level without having to deal with mumbo jumbo such as 'multipart' and 'mimemessage'.
### [simplejavamail.org](https://www.simplejavamail.org) ###
Simple Java Mail is available in [Maven Central](https://search.maven.org/search?q=g:org.simplejavamail):

- v8.8.0 (22-March-2024): [#499](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/499): [Enhancement] Expose finer-grained DKIM configuration through the builder api and disable 'l-param' by default)
NOTE: release 8.8.0 changes the default for DKIM signing from 'l-param' true to false. If you rely on this feature, you need to enable it explicitly. Refer to the [DKIM documentation](https://www.simplejavamail.org/security.html#section-sending-dkim) for the update.
v8.7.0 - [v8.7.1](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/simplejavamail/simple-java-mail/8.7.1/)
- v8.7.1 (20-March-2024): [#498](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/498): Make S/MIME algorithms configurable (signature algorithm for signing, key encapsulation and cipher algorithms for encryption)
- v8.7.1 (20-March-2024): [#497](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/497): Order of attachments is lost when converting a MimeMessage to an Email
- v8.7.0 (20-March-2024): don't use this version: versioning messed up
NOTE: this breaks the API for S/MIME related builder methods. Refer to the [S/MIME documentation](https://www.simplejavamail.org/security.html#section-sending-smime) for the new API.
v8.6.0 - [v8.6.3](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/simplejavamail/simple-java-mail/8.6.3/)
- v8.6.3 (13-February-2024): [#491](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/491): [bug] Attachment body parts should separately parse Content-Disposition and ContentID, possible resulting in a downloadable attachment that is also embedded
- v8.6.2 (27-January-2024): [#493](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/493): [bug] don't require smime-module when adding collection of headers (also used when copying email)
- v8.6.1 (18-January-2024): [#487](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/487): Move header filtering from MimeMessageParser to EmailConverter, thereby enabling access to all parsed headers when using MimeMessageParser directly
- v8.6.1 (18-January-2024): [#489](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/489): Finished update to Angus Mail by updating activation dependency
- v8.6.0 (17-January-2024): [#489](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/489): Update to Angus Mail
NOTE: this release switches to Angus Mail which should be a transparent change, but if you encounter any issues, please report them.
One known issue is that Angus, since 1.1.0, performs server identity checks by default, which was previously disabled for SMTP. If you encounter issues with this, you can disable it with `mailerBuilder.verifyingServerIdentity(false)` and starting from 8.8.2, this also works with SMTP transport strategy (see [#495](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/495)).

There are now overloaded build methods that provide similar behaviour as previous versions.**
v7.9.0 - [v7.9.1](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/simplejavamail/simple-java-mail/7.9.1/)
- v7.9.1 (22-February-2023): [#444](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/444) Bugfix: encoded delimited recipients in EML not parsed properly

v7.8.0 - [v7.8.3](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/simplejavamail/simple-java-mail/7.8.3/)
- v7.8.3 (21-February-2023): [#293](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/293) Bugfix: Decoding missing in a few placed when parsing MimeMessage or sending an Email
- v7.8.2 (09-February-2023): [#442](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/442) Enhancement: Simple Java Mail should throw an exception when trying to utilize S/MIME with smime-module on the classpath
- v7.8.1 (01-February-2023): [#438](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/438) Bug: properly Fail-Fast in case of Transport claim timeout in the batch-module, rather than running into NPE further down the line
- v7.8.0 (24-January-2023): [#436](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/436) Enhancement: add mailerBuilder.withTransportModeLoggingOnly() as mailer API entry point
- v7.8.0 (24-January-2023): [#435](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/435) Enhancement: SMTP server config should be optional in case a CustomMailer is used
- v7.8.0 (24-January-2023): [#427](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/427) Feature: set a maximum email size on Mailer level which throws EmailToBig exception when exceeded
v7.7.0 - [v7.7.1](https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.simplejavamail%7Csimple-java-mail%7C7.7.1%7Cjar)

7.7.0 moves the conversion of Email to MimeMessage to after a Transport instance has been selected (in case of a cluster of SMTP servers),
so we can apply defaults/overrides on the Mailer level, meaning you can configure 'global' values for individual SMTP servers
(like a fixed FROM per server).

- [#327](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/327) Implement toString() for Mailer instances for debugging purposes
#### About the migration ####
Updating to Java8/Jakarta 2.0.1 posed a challenge as the 3rd party S/MIME library [java-utils-mail-smime](https://github.com/markenwerk/java-utils-mail-smime) has been abandoned/archived while developing Simple Java Mail. Furthermore, it was still under LGPL3 license while everything else is ApacheV2.
Thankfully, I obtained permissions from the maintainers -as well as original developers from decades ago on SourceForge- to take both java-utils-mail-smime and java-utils-mail-dkim under my wings at Simple Java Mail and change the licensing model! You can now post issues and pull requests here:

[v4.3.0](https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.simplejavamail%7Csimple-java-mail%7C4.3.0%7Cjar) (12-August-2017)
Security and timeout release.
This version safeguards against SMTP injection attack from external values entering the library through *Email* instance. Also, this release introduces default/configurable timeouts for connecting, reading and writing when sending an email.
- [#89](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/89) Support multiple delimited recipient addresses sharing the same TO/CC/BCC name

[v4.2.3](https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.simplejavamail%7Csimple-java-mail%7C4.2.3%7Cjar) (21-May-2017)
- [#79](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/79): Enhancement: define custom message ID on the Email object
- [#74](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/74): v4.2.3-java-6-release: A java6 version with limited capabilities:
I've released a customised java6 release with a customised outlook-message-parser 1.1.16-java6-release. **This is the last java6 release** I will do, as it is simply too much manual labor to create a limited second edition.
For this edition, I've removed the JDK7 Phaser completely which has the following consequences:
- If authenticated proxy is used, the bridging proxy server will not be shut down automatically (and might not run the second time)
- If mails are sent in async mode, the connection pool will not be shut down anymore by itself
This means your server/application might not stop properly due to lingering processes. To be completely safe, only send emails in sync mode (used by default) and don't use authenticated proxy config.
[v4.2.2](https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.simplejavamail%7Csimple-java-mail%7C4.2.2%7Cjar) (10-May-2017)
- [#73](https://github.com/bbottema/simple-java-mail/issues/73): Patch: fix for sending emails in async mode, which makes sure the connection pool is always closed when the last *known* email has been sent. Without this fix, the connection pool keeps any parent process running (main thread or Tomcat for example) until a hard kill.
