[Springframework-user] SimpleMailMessage and Date header

[Andreas Brenk]

Hi all,

just a quick and simple question: Why does SimpleMailMessage doesn't
have a method to set the Date header?

Regards,
Andreas

SimpleMailMessage is more or less the least common denominator of COS' and JavaMail's mail sending capabilities. Actually, it should be possible to set the date header with COS too; it's just that there is no explicit method for it in the COS MailMessage class. So we might provide date header support for SimpleMailMessage in a future point release.

For the time being, you'll have to work with the JavaMailSender interface and JavaMail's MimeMessage class. With the MimeMessageHelper class that Spring provides, it should be easy enough to populate a MimeMessage in a SimpleMailMessage-style fashion. (See MimeMessageHelper's javadoc for details.) Of course, MimeMessage is much more powerful: It supports attachements, text encoding, etc.

Thanks. I guess I have to switch to MimeMessage then and take a look at
MimeMessageHelper. Regardless of my relatively "simple mail message". ;-)

Hi. I am wondering if anyone knows where I can find example usage of
the AbstractWizardFormController. Thanks.
