I am using Spring boot to send email at particular time of the day. I have achieved this using Spring scheduler. This part works fine. But while sending email, the application randomly throws a Mail server connection failed; nested exception is javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not convert socket to TLS;
The problem is it throws this exception randomly.Other times the email is sent without any issue. Once it starts throwing the exception then i end up restarting the server. I cant do this once the application moves to Prod. I know the connection params and properties are correct since email are getting sent. Does any one have any idea why this happens.
Below are spring boot configuration that i have used
spring.mail.host=relay.xx.org
spring.mail.port=25
spring.mail.username=prabu.alias@mydomain.org
spring.mail.password=xxxxx
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.auth=localhost
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.starttls.enable=true
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtps.trust=*
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.connectiontimeout=5000
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.timeout=5000
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.writetimeout=5000
The code that sends the email
SimpleMailMessage msg = new SimpleMailMessage();
msg.setFrom(FROM_ADDRESS);
msg.setTo(TO_ADDRESS);
msg.setSubject("Test email ");
msg.setText("This is a Test email generated at 5 PM." );
javaMailSender.send(msg);
The exception trace below.
