Provides a service to send email messages on behalf of administrators or authenticated users, also accessible via a JavaMail interface. Receiving messages is not supported via the JavaMail API but is supported via an HTTP interface.
This low-level API is intended primarily for framework authors. For application developers we
provide a custom javax.mail.Transport
that allows the standard javax.mail
interface to be used to send emails. No special configuration is required to send emails via this
interface.
The com.google.appengine.api.mail.MailService.Message class represents a message, including sender and recipient information, and possibly attachments as com.google.appengine.api.mail.MailService.Attachment objects. These can be independently created via their respective constructors.
Sending a message requires a com.google.appengine.api.mail.MailService object, created
by the com.google.appengine.api.mail.MailServiceFactory. Messages are sent
asynchronously, so the MailService
methods will
always succeed immediately. Any errors in the mail message will be returned to the sender's
address as "bounce" messages.
