"prop.put("mail.smtp.host","smtp.covad.net"); didn't work.
That change caused the transfer to fail; I changed it back to the host computer name.
Do you have any other suggestions as to why the transfer works for Outlook and not the other clients?
Thanks, Charles

David,
I X'ed out my real host name. But the "XXXXXX-YYYYYY1" represents the host name of my computer. My Outgoing SMTP server is "smtp.covad.net". My host computer name is "XXXXXX-YYYYYY1". I'm going to try "prop.put("mail.smtp.host","smtp.covad.net");", and see where that gets me.
Thanks for the insight.
Charles.

You need to check what you are doing. It makes no sense that a text email gets an HTTP error. What the heck is it doing coming back to your Tomcat anyway? Email is sent via SMTP.
I don't know what you are trying to do with the following code fragment: > Properties props = new Properties(); > props.put("smtp.covad.net", "XXXXXX-YYYYYY1");
Normally, you'd do something like:
Properties prop = new Properties(); prop.put("mail.smtp.host","mail.yourhost.com");
The SMTP server (mail.yourhost.com above) takes care of delivery, so there's no need to worry about which email client a person uses.
Perhaps you meant (if that's the smtp server you use to send email out):
prop.put("mail.smtp.host","smtp.covad.net");
Good luck, David
