Mail session settings for application clients

Use this page to configure mail session properties.

To view this Application Client Resource Configuration Tool (ACRCT) page, click File > Open. After you browse for an EAR file, click Open. Expand the selected JAR file > Mail Providers > mail provider instance. Right-click Mail Sessions and click New. The following fields appear on the General tab:

Provides an optional description for your administrative records.

JNDI Name

The application client run time uses this field to retrieve configuration information.

Mail Transport Host

Mail Transport Protocol

Timeransport protocol to use when sending mail.

Mail Transport User

Mail Transport Password

Enable strict Internet address parsing

Specifies whether the recipient addresses must be parsed strictly in compliance with RFC 822, which is a specifications document issued by the Internet Architecture Board.

This setting is not generally used for most mail applications. RFC 822 syntax for parsing addresses effectively enforces a strict definition of a valid e-mail address. If you select this setting, JavaMail will adhere to RFC 822 syntax and reject recipient addresses that do not parse into valid e-mail addresses (as defined by the specification). If you do not select this setting, JavaMail will not adhere to RFC 822 syntax and will accept recipient addresses that do not comply with the specification. By default, this setting is deselected. You can view the RFC 822 specification at the following URL for the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C): http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc822/.

Re-Enter Password

Confirms the password.

Mail From

Mail Store Host

Mail Store User

Mail Store Password

Mail Debug

When true, JavaMail interaction with mail servers, along with these mail session properties are printed to the stdout file.

Custom Properties

Specifies name-value pairs for setting additional properties on the object that is created at run time for this resource.

You must enter a name that is a public property on the object and a value that can be converted from a string to the type required by the set method of the property. The acceptable properties and values depend on the object that is created. Refer to the object documentation for a list of valid properties and values.
