props.put("mail.smtp.port", "465");

Are you sure it's not 587? I thought 465 was for SSL.

with that gives me this error:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.RuntimeException: com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPSendFailedException: 550 No SMTP server defined. Use real server address instead of 127.0.0.1 in your account.

:/

ehm ... I assume you know what "127.0.0.1" is? unless you have such a server running on the machine on which you run the application (which is very unlikely) you'll need to provide another server address.

how to proveide new server address and also does if i try it out on other machine will work ???

not unless you have that kind of server installed there.
127.0.0.1 is the ipAddress of localhost, the computer you're working on.
well, look into the code where that ip address is entered and replace it by a valid one.

i dont have that ip address in my code all i have is up there in first post ...

that isn't even a complete compilable class, so no, it isn't.

help me with it make it correct please .. :/

show us all your code, maybe we might.

i have also other JFrame's for this project and this is just one of them ...
