Thanks for jumping in and investigating. This has gone from ugly to
horrible.... I think I have found the culprit.
I first had to figure out who is providing the class for SMTPTransport.
I figured out that the package for SMTPTransport is:
org.apache.geronimo.javamail.transport.smtp. So it is NOT a base JVM
implementation.... It's apache, and I am about to withdraw my statement
that 'surely the transport class couldn't be ignoring a property".....
Geronimo's SMTPTransport.java uses a class SMTPConnection which actually
returns the localhost name. And... no surprise at this point, it
totally ignores the mail.smtp.localhost property. The property doesn't
even appear anywher in the class. First line in getLocalHost() pulls
the InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName() value.
So.... half the problem is done... we know the culprit. Now I guess (oh
joy....) I get to download the whole geronimo package, set up a build
process, fix the code, and replace the jar on my server. (yuck).
That is... unless someone already has a VERY quick way to patch and
rebuild geronimo..... Looking for volunteers.... :-)
In the meantime, I will also try adding that JVM parameter to try to
override the Win Server machine name.
Still open to other suggestions for quicker workaround.....
Thanks.
Jerry
