"Unable to Relay" error while sending mail from Struts application using exchange server

Question

i am working on a web application using struts2 and Apache Tomcat 6 as the web-server. In the application i am trying to send some emails and i am using JavaMail for this. The problem is that i am not being able to send mails to email addresses that are outside my company domain. I can send mails to email addresses that are in my company domain.

The confusing thing is that, if i run the JavaMail program outside my web application as a single/separate Java program then mails are going to address that are in outside domain. The problem arises in my web application when there is no change in the JavaMail code. Please help.

JavaMail code

        final String username = "mymail@abc.com";
        final String password = "password";    

        Properties props = new Properties();  
        props.setProperty("mail.transport.protocol","smtp");
        props.put("mail.smtp.host", "myExchangeMailServer"); 
        props.put("mail.smtp.port", "25"); 
        props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");  
        props.put("mail.debug", "true");              
        props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
        props.put("mail.smtp.EnableSSL.enable", "true");

        Session session =  
            Session.getInstance(props, new javax.mail.Authenticator() {  
                protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {  
                    return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password);  
                }  
            }); 

        Transport trans=null;
        try {
        Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);             
        InternetAddress addressFrom = new InternetAddress(username);  
        msg.setFrom(addressFrom);       
        InternetAddress[] address = {new InternetAddress("xyz@gmail.com")};           
        msg.setRecipients(MimeMessage.RecipientType.TO, address);  
        msg.setSubject("subject");  
        msg.setText("Test mail. This is actual message");
        trans = session.getTransport("smtp");
        trans.connect(SMTP_HOST_NAME,username,password);
        msg.saveChanges();
        trans.sendMessage(msg, address);            
        }
        catch (MessagingException mex) {
         mex.printStackTrace();
        }

I don't understand why the same program runs separately but not within my web application. I have included the same mail.jar file in both. Do i need to make any change in my web.xml file or in my apache server configuration.

A telnet session with the mail server returned this:

Answer 1

You're using JavaMail 1.4.1 when it doesn't work and JavaMail 1.4.7 when it does work. You probably want to use the latest JavaMail 1.5.1 release in both cases. That will almost certainly fix your problem.

Also, there's no property named "mail.smtp.EnableSSL.enable". I don't know where you got that from but it's completely bogus.

The "mail.smtp.starttls.enable" property is correct, but your server doesn't seem to support STARTTLS so it's not being used; you're sending your authentication information in the clear.
