Sorry for a so late reply, but I've been busy.
I've took a deeper look at this problem. Actually, (tested with java-mail
1.1 and 1.2) when you try to send an email with a void BodyPart, then "send"
method will die with a MessagingException (with a nested IOException: No
content). I have a simple (~70 lines) class that shows that behaviour.
And in the line 131 of HtmlEmail.java turbine adds a MimeBodyPart to the
HtmlEmail (the MimeBodyPart that will contain the alternative text message),
but it doesn't set any text to this MimeBodyPart.
So, if somebody wants to send a HtmlEmail, he must do:
new HtmlEmail().setHtmlMsg("<head><body><h1>HI!</h1></body></head>")
.setTextMsg("") // <----
.addTo("[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
.setFrom("[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
.setSentDate(new Date())
.setSubject("the subject")
.send();
This problem can be solved if we add a msgText.setText("") in the line 131
of HtmlEmail.java. If the programmer wants to add an alternative text he
can always call HtmlEmail.setTextMsg("foo"), and "foo" will override "".
What do you think?
