Sun has an API spec JavaMail that can be used to send email from Java
program. JavaMail can downloaded from Sun web site.

		Hello,

		To send an email from a servlet I have been using the class:
		sun.net.smtp.SmtpClient

		This provides methods for specifying email address to send
to, a
		printstream for the actual message, various headers (like
'subject'
		etc). It works but it seems to be unsupported by Sun (it
hasnt changed
		since version 1.0).

		If you are trying to send parameters from a html form, then
these can be
		formatted as part of the printstream. I hope this helps.
