how to send mail to a mailing list with java?

Question

Hi, I want to send a mail to a mailing list every period of time (like every 40min or hour) with java on a unix server.
I'd like any code or tutorial to be able to do this.

Thanks

Answer 1

JavaMail is the usual approach for this. You will need a SMTP-server for JavaMail to connect to.

Answer 2

Sending a mail to a mailing list does not differ from sending a regular mail. The simplest way is to use commons-email. Check its examples.
