OK, well let me know how it goes... Again I believe there is a bug in the
AbstractJavamailMailSender class. Let me know if you want me to send you
what I have because I didn't spend to much time trying to figure out why
the pleus-mail-sender-javamail code does not work right.

Re: can't send mail - using

Thanks for your suggestions... I tried to set the properties as you
suggested with no luck. Today I downloaded the source that contains
AbstractJavamailMailSender and started adding debug messages. It seems the
password is null...
I'm using the JNDI mail config and it seems the property is never getting
set. When i Hard coded the password as a test and deployed the jar to
tomcat
the emails started to send.
