[opencms-dev] URGENT - CmsMailer and opencms.properties query

[Trevor Lee]

Hi all,

I've modified CmsMail to use SMTP username/password authentication when it
comes to sending emails via the Workflow.

Now i want to add 3 variables (username, password and server) to the
opencms.properties file.
mailServer=xxx
mailUserName=xxx
mailPassword=xxx

When i try to retrieve the properties in CmsMail.java using the following i
get null for all variables:
Properties props = System.getProperties();
String sMailServer = props.getProperty("mailServer");
String sUserName = props.getProperty("mailUserName");
String sPassword = props.getProperty("mailPassword");

1. What java classes do i need to change to ensure these values are read
from the properties file?

2. What do i need to do to retrieve the values from within the CmsMail?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Cheers
Trevor
