> Hello,
> I'm using "Apache Commons Email 1.4".
> Consider the following simple code:
> {code}
> import org.apache.commons.mail.Email;
> import org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException;
> import org.apache.commons.mail.SimpleEmail;
> [...]
>     Email email = new SimpleEmail();
>     email.setHostName("smtp.foo.bar");
>     try
>     {
>         email.setFrom("foo2@bar2.fr");
>         email.setSubject("TestMail");
>         email.setMsg("This is a test mail ... :-)");
>         email.addTo("foo3@bar3.fr");
>         email.send();
>     }
>     catch(EmailException e)
>     {
>         // TODO Auto-generated catch block
>         e.printStackTrace();
>     }
> {code}
> The code above is put:
> - CASE 1: in the *doPost()* method of a *HttpServlet* object: it works (I receive the email).
> - CASE 2: at runtime (there are no build errors), in the *run()* method of a *TimerTask* object:  
>   If I put a breakpoint on the line *Email email = new SimpleEmail();*
>   hit F6 in Eclipse to execute the instruction,
>   I get the message: Source not found.
> What am I doing wrong? What is going wrong? How can I make it work?
> Best regards.
