friends please help me as soon as possible..
thanking u all!!!

waste forum...no one is there to answer a simple question...
bye bye to daniweb.com...

you should set mail server, example:bestmailserver of firstmailserver.
If u test on localhost: u should change "transport.connect("smtp.gmail.com",587,"xxx@gmail.com","xxx");"
by : transport.connect("localhost",25,null,null);
I tried and success.
