send mail in android application without smtp.gmail.com

Question

I should send email trough app but I want send it from another mail account (no gmail). I've coded a class Mail and I set host="mail@xxxxxx.xx" but in debug mode I've seen that variable host is = "smtp.gmail.com". How is possible? There is a trick?

Answer 1

You're using the JavaMail API to send the mail, right?

Check the JavaMail FAQ , there's several ways to specify the host you want to connect to, including setting a property or passing it explicitly in the call to the connect method. Without more detail on what exactly you're doing, it's hard to say where you went wrong.
