You don't send mail to Microsoft outlook, but outlook gets it from pop server.

It's good practice to not to write Javamail code inside JSP, instead you can create a mail helper and use it inside JSP.

Look at Commons email library (http://commons.apache.org/email/)

It's quite easy, import the org.apache.commons.mail.SimpleEmail into your JSP using JSP page directive (http://www.jsptube.com/jsp-tutorials/jsp-page-directive.html)



<%@page import=”org.apache.commons.mail.SimpleEmail”/>

<%
SimpleEmail email = new SimpleEmail();
email.setHostName("mail.myserver.com");
email.addTo("jdoe@somewhere.org", "John Doe");
email.setFrom("me@apache.org", "Me");
email.setSubject("Test message");
email.setMsg("This is a simple test of commons-email");
email.send();
%>

[servlet]

Host name is the name of the server where mail server is running.
If you are running mail server on you local PC, you can user 'localhost' as host name. You can use IP address too.
