Few of API supported IMAP protocol features such as authentication, create, select, remove, query folders, get and save messages and change message flags.

How to send an email using SMTP - Java

// Initialize SmtpClient object

SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", 587, "username", "password");

// Set Security options for the server

client.setSecurityOptions(SecurityOptions.Auto);

// Create a new Message

MailMessage msg = new MailMessage("This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.", "This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.", "First Message from Java", "Body");

System.out.println("Sending message..");
