title: Send mail from my web application
body: <p>I have a feature in my web app like I have to send mails from the server to many email ids (some kind of notification stuff)</p>
  
  <p>my web application is implemented in struts2. Possibly I have to use javamail api i guess. I am completely new to this javamail and sending mail from server. what basic steps I need to do to setup a mail server in windows, contact the server from my java web app. What api i should I use ?
  The web has very limited tutorials on javamail and they are damn complicated too.
  Is there any other api other than javamail by which I can send mail from my java struts2 web app.</p>
  
  <p>thanks</p>
