I am using javamail api in java servlet to send mail. It seams to send mail only to gmail Id's, whereas I want it to be able to send to any email ID. Do I require different property value here? I followed http://www.mkyong.com/java/javamail-api-sending-email-via-gmail-smtp-example/ to develop the code. The property values are: props.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com"); props.setProperty("mail.smtp.port", "587"); props.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth", "true"); props.setProperty("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
