I have the following code which is attempting to send an email in background. I have made use of a textview to see the exception. However, although nothing is being shown in the textview, I also cannot receive the mail. So I am not sure whether the mail has been delivered successfully or not. Can anyone give help to me?
Based on the suggestions, I have modified my program as following:
new Sender.java
public class Sender extends Activity {
Button Send;
TextView text;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_sender);
Send = (Button) findViewById(R.id.mail);
text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder()
.permitAll().build();
StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
Send.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
new SendMail().execute();
}
});
}
private class SendMail extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String>
{
ProgressDialog pd = null;
String error = null;
Integer result;
@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPreExecute();
pd = new ProgressDialog(Sender.this);
pd.setTitle("Uploading");
pd.setMessage("Uploading logs. Please wait");
pd.setCancelable(false);
pd.show();
}
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
MailSender sender = new MailSender("[email protected]", "password");
String[] toAddress = {"[email protected]"};
sender.setTo(toAddress);
sender.setFrom("[email protected]");
sender.setSubject("Test mail");
sender.setBody("This is the mail body");
try {
if(sender.send()) {
System.out.println("Message sent");
result = 1;
} else {
result = 2;
}
} catch (Exception e) {
error = e.getMessage();
Log.e("SendMail", e.getMessage(), e);
}
result = 3;
return null;
}
protected void onPostExecute() {
pd.dismiss();
if(error!=null) {
text.setText(error);
}
if(result==1) {
Toast.makeText(Sender.this,
"Email was sent successfully.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
} else if(result==2) {
Toast.makeText(Sender.this,
"Email was not sent.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else if(result==3) {

Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
}

this.from = fromAddress;
}
public void setSubject(String subject) {

}

}
After I changed the programm, when I click the button, it stops at pre-execution state, displaying "Uploading logs. Please wait". Mail cannot be sent out.

I have already carry out the send operation in AsyncTask, may I ask why it still does not work?
as the log shows, you are calling network related tasks from main UI thread. You have to use AsyncTask
for these communications. and remove the StrictMode
by doing
StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder()
.permitAll().build();
StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
Also see my answer in this post regarding the usage of JavaMail API.
