Mail Sender Exception (Using mailtrap.io)


I'm trying to implement Mail Sending functionality (For now I'm using some fake smtp) but I keep getting this error:

    2020-09-19 00:20:38.209 DEBUG 880 --- [nio-8080-exec-5] o.s.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet        : Failed to complete request: org.springframework.mail.MailSendException: Failed messages: javax.mail.SendFailedException: No recipient addresses; message exceptions (1) are:

My code:

application.properties:

mail.enable=true
mail.smtp.host=smtp.mailtrap.io
mail.smtp.port=2525
mail.smtp.user=2be3af3d5134be
mail.smtp.pass=2c9ac24fa0808e

MailConfig.java

@Configuration
public class MailConfig {
    
    @Value("${mail.smtp.host}")
    private String host;
    
    @Value("${mail.smtp.port}")
    private Integer port;
    
    @Value("${mail.smtp.user}")
    private String username;
    
    @Value("${mail.smtp.pass}")
    private String password;
    
    @Bean
    public JavaMailSender mailSender() {
        
        JavaMailSenderImpl mailSender = new JavaMailSenderImpl();
        
        mailSender.setHost(host);
        mailSender.setPort(port);
        mailSender.setUsername(username);
        mailSender.setPassword(password);
        
        return mailSender;
    }
    
}

And everything starts here:

@RequestMapping(value = "/register", method=RequestMethod.POST)
ModelAndView register(ModelAndView modelAndView, @ModelAttribute(value="user") @Valid SiteUser user, BindingResult result) {
    
    modelAndView.setViewName("app.register");
    
    if(!result.hasErrors()) {
        userService.register(user);
        
        emailService.sendVerificationEmail(user.getEmail()); // STEP 1
        
        modelAndView.setViewName("redirect:/");
    }
    
    return modelAndView;
}   

EmailService.java

@Service
public class EmailService {
    
    @Autowired
    private JavaMailSender mailSender;
    
    @Value("${mail.enable}")
    private Boolean isMailEnabled;
    
    private void sendEmail(MimeMessagePreparator preparator) {
        if(isMailEnabled) {
            mailSender.send(preparator); // STEP 2
        }
    }
    
    public void sendVerificationEmail(String emailAddress) {
        
        MimeMessagePreparator preparator = new MimeMessagePreparator() {

            @Override
            public void prepare(MimeMessage mimeMessage) throws Exception {
                
                MimeMessageHelper message = new MimeMessageHelper(mimeMessage);
                
                message.setReplyTo(emailAddress);
                message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("socialnetworkmailsender@yandex.com"));
                message.setSubject("Please Verify Your Email Address");
                message.setSentDate(new Date());
                
                message.setText("Hello there!");
                
            }
        };
        
        sendEmail(preparator);
    }
}

These are my classes, I left 2 comments in this code:

STEP 1: I want to send verification email after user finish registration. I'm taking email he entered and I'm passing that address to 'sendVerificationEmail' method.

STEP 2: Up to this point everything seems okay but after this call error appears on my console and I don't understand why.

NOTE: Besides mailtrap.io I tried using mailspons as well but I'm getting same error.

Do you know why I'm getting this error?


Solution

  • I managed to fix the error.

    Problem was within 'sendVerificationEmail' method.

    Instead of using:

    message.setReplyTo(emailAddress);
    

    I needed to use:

    message.setTo(emailAddress);
