Did you set up the catch-all address? Warning or not, that address should get the email.

Last question. Do we modify the spring-email.xml file or will you do it as part of testing? Namely this portion:

    <bean id="blogEntryNotificationEmailTemplate" class="csns.util.EmailTemplate">
        <constructor-arg value="@app.url@" />
        <property name="from" value="y_mur_2003@yahoo.com" />
        <property name="to" value="y_mur_2003@yahoo.com" />
        <property name="subject" value="New Blog Entry in CSNS Blog - @blog.title@" />
        <property name="content">

We won't touch spring-email.xml, so you should use some account @localhost.localdomain, especially for the "to" property.

Got it. So these lines of code inside spring-email.xml should be ok right, since it will be the same for all the messages?

    <bean id="blogEntryNotificationEmailTemplate" class="csns.util.EmailTemplate">
        <constructor-arg value="@app.url@" />
        <property name="from" value="csns@@email.domain" />
        <property name="subject" value="New Blog Entry in CSNS Blog - @blog.title@" />

I don't get the csns@@email.domain part. It should be something like csns@localhost.localdomain.

I think it is a typo I have. It should be csns@@email.domain@   In this case it substitutes email.domain with localhost.localdomain from EmailTemplate.java (or at least that's what I thought).

If it's a token to be replaced in EmailTemplate.java, why not just put csns@localhost.localdomain directly in spring-email.xml? Note that if something is common to all emails, you can put it in spring-email.xml, and if something is specific to each email, you put a token in spring-email.xml and replace it with the real value for each email at runtime.

That's exactly what I ended up doing. It all started by me copy and pasting another bean from the same file and trying to figure out how it works. Now I have csns@localhost.localdomain in the file, for From and I update the To to each specific email address inside the controller.

Hi,

Sorry I didn't get the meaning of "catch-all address".  Shall I include a real email address like  something@yahoo.com

in the recipients' list to get the email?  or it is something else?

Thanks.
