I'm trying to create a Java application that only receives emails from my private email (not gmail), but I keep getting errors, whether it's a connection failed or SSL handshake problems, the last error I got is:
Javax net SSL sslhandshakeexception Remote host terminated the handshake.
My java class is :
import java.util.Properties;
import javax.mail.Folder;
import javax.mail.Message;
import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.NoSuchProviderException;
import javax.mail.Session;
import javax.mail.Store;
public class CheckingMail {
public static void check(String host, String storeType, String user,
String password)
{
try {
//create properties field
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.put("mail.pop3.host", host);
properties.put("mail.pop3.port", "995");
properties.put("mail.pop3s.ssl.protocols", "TLSv1.2");
properties.setProperty("mail.pop3.ssl.trust", "*"); // Trust all Servers
properties.setProperty("mail.pop3.ssl.trust", "private hostname"); // Trust all Servers
Session emailSession = Session.getDefaultInstance(properties);
//create the POP3 store object and connect with the pop server
Store store = emailSession.getStore("pop3s");
store.connect(host, user, password);
//create the folder object and open it
Folder emailFolder = store.getFolder("INBOX");
emailFolder.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);
// retrieve the messages from the folder in an array and print it
Message[] messages = emailFolder.getMessages();
System.out.println("messages.length---" + messages.length);
for (int i = 0, n = messages.length; i < n; i++) {
Message message = messages[i];
System.out.println("---------------------------------");
System.out.println("Email Number " + (i + 1));
System.out.println("Subject: " + message.getSubject());
System.out.println("From: " + message.getFrom()[0]);
System.out.println("Text: " + message.getContent().toString());
}
//close the store and folder objects
emailFolder.close(false);
store.close();
} catch (NoSuchProviderException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (MessagingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
String host = "private host name";// change accordingly
String mailStoreType = "pop3";
String username = "my email";// change accordingly
String password = "my password";// change accordingly
check(host, mailStoreType, username, password);
}
}
