com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPSendFailedException: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first

I am creating an app in play 2.2.1 and trying to add email facility to it.For that I have added dependency in my build.sbt file.But getting an exception explained below

my code

        String smtpHost = Play.application().configuration().getString("smtp.host");
        Integer smtpPort = Play.application().configuration().getInt("smtp.port");
        String smtpUser = Play.application().configuration().getString("smtp.user");
        String smtpPassword = Play.application().configuration().getString("smtp.password");

        Email mail = new SimpleEmail();
        try {
            mail.setFrom("[email protected]");
            mail.setSubject("hi");
            mail.setMsg("This is the message");
            mail.addTo("[email protected]");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }



        mail.setHostName(smtpHost);
        if (smtpPort != null && smtpPort > 1 && smtpPort < 65536) {
            mail.setSmtpPort(smtpPort);

        }
        if (!smtpUser.isEmpty()) {
            mail.setAuthentication(smtpUser, smtpPassword);
        }


        try {
            mail.send();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();

   }

Included code in application.conf

# Email Configuration
smtp.host=smtp.gmail.com
smtp.port=587
smtp.ssl=yes
smtp.user="[email protected]"
smtp.password="123456"
smtp.auth=true
smtp.STARTTLS.enable=true

But I am getting an exception

People also ask

What is Starttls command in SMTP?

StartTLS is a protocol command used to inform the email server that the email client wants to upgrade from an insecure connection to a secure one using TLS or SSL. StartTLS is used with SMTP and IMAP, while POP3 uses the slightly different command for encryption, STLS.

At the very first I had the same problem that you've run into.

And when I changed smtp.STARTTLS.enable=true to smtp.starttls.enable=true, everything works.

I think you have to specify that you are sending a TLS email before sending the email.

mail.setTLS(true);

I am not 100% sure but I think it might solve the problem.

Also for more info you can refer to this user guide: https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-email/userguide.html
