  Hello Robert,

  Thanks for the response. I wasn't very clear about my syntax error, allow me to clarify:

  I have this snippet:

  try{
   email.send();
  } catch (EmailException e)
   [code goes in here]
  }

  Now, when I run my JSP, I get a compile-time error, because java doesn't like EmailException (i.e. cannot resolve symbol).

  Okay, should be easy to fix, maybe I just forgot to import something? I am already importing org.opencms.mail.* and org.apache.commons.mail.*.

  Am I missing an import? Do I need an extra jar file in my /lib folder? I'm sure it's something small

  Al

    Yes.

    But you don't wanna tell which error that is or post some code?

    Well, using commons email is pretty straightforward, so I suggest you read
    <http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/exception.html>

    The only "pitfall" I can think of with commons email is that the
    addTo(), addCc() and addBcc() methods take String objects as arguments
    while the setTo(), setCc() and setBcc() methods take as argument a
    Collection of not Strings but InternetAddress objects. And you need to
    specify the email server in IIRC opencms-system.xml.


    Regards,
    Robert
