I am using a JNDI Mail Session in GlassFish V2. I'm asking which
properties I need to add to it so that I can have both SSL and
username/password.

I found this example on the net:
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.port", "465");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.port", "465");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.class",
"javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory");
props.put("mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback", "false");
props.put("mail.debug", "true");
Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
That gets me SSL in my JavaMail datasource, but not username/password.
If I choose to use roller-custom.properties to configure mail instead of
my JNDI datasource, I can do username/password but not SSL. Can Roller
be enhanced to allow both? As it is now I can't use the SMTP server at
work, my ISP, or gmail because they all require SSL, username and
password.
Thanks,
Ryan
