It's always a good idea to externalize variables in a properties file.So create a my_config.properties accessible from your classpath. Put in it the variables needed for your mail server.

PLAIN TEXT
CODE:
  1. #Mail Config
  2. host=localhost
  3. port=25
  4. username=system
  5. password=12345

Create a new application context file:

PLAIN TEXT
XML:
  1. <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans">
  2. </beans> xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  3. xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
