sending smtp mail failure

Hi,

I set up a small web app and the servlet is supposed to send an email using
JavaMail. But I am getting exceptions - Connection Timed out every time. I
am using Gmail as an smtp server to bounce emails off. How can I avoid the
Connection Timed out exception? Could it be because of my firewall? If so,
which process should I permission?

Thank you,

MT

I did not realize/know that this will create a
problem. I apologize for doing that. I have sent a new
message for my topic/question. Thanks for bringing it
to my attention.

When starting a new thread (ie sending a message to the list about a
new topic) please do not reply to an existing message and change the
subject line. To many of the list archiving services and mail clients
used by list subscribers this  makes your new message appear as part
of the old thread. This makes it harder for other users to find
relevant information when searching the lists.

This is known as thread hijacking and is behaviour that is frowned
upon on this list. Frequent offenders will be removed from the list.
It should also be noted that many list subscribers automatically
ignore any messages that hijack another thread.

The correct procedure is to create a new message with a new subject.
This will start a new thread.

Re: error-page

Posted by Eqbal <eq...@yahoo.com>.

I have an error-page directive in a webapp's web.xml
to display a custom error page on 404/500 errors. . It
works on my local machine which has Tomcat 5.5.17, but
it does not work on my server which has 5.5.20
installed. Any ideas?
Below is my web.xml:
