possible via applets

Posted by Siddhant Kumar on August 24, 2001 at 1:31 AM

you can open a socket for sending mails... search for java mail program you will get source code of it. Open a socket and send Mail address, port no. and subject with body of the mail using streams..

hope this is useful

bye for now
