This has been very helpful, thank you. I had been unable to find this:
One other question, my spring configuration for this looks like this:
<bean id="mailSender"
class="org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl">
<property name="host" value="smtp.xxxx.com"/>
<property name="password" value="xxxxx"/>
<property name="port" value="587"/>
<property name="username" value="nore...@xxxxx.com"/>
<property name="javaMailProperties">
<props>
<prop key="mail.smtp.from">nore...@xxxx.com</prop>
<prop key="mail.smtp.user">nore...@xxxx.com</prop>
<prop key="mail.smtp.auth">true</prop>
<prop key="mail.smtp.starttls.enable">true</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
How do I place the properties for javaMailProperties in?

I'm not exactly sure what you mean here, but JNDI (i.e. the <Resource/>
tag) is document here.
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html
and here.

You can certainly do this. Here's a link to the docs which describes
how to define Mail Sessions.
