How do you send an email from a Yahoo server via JavaMail?

I've been trying to find a site which is updated to the newest version of JavaMail, but whenever I try I get this annoying error (Debug enabled)
Help?

Code:

String smtpHost = "smtp.mail.yahoo.com";
        String popHost = "pop.mail.yahoo.com";
        String from = "[email protected]";
        String to = "[email protected]";
        String username = "classified";
        String password = "secret";

        // Get system properties
        Properties props = System.getProperties();

        // Setup mail server
        props.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpHost);
        props.put("mail.smtp.port", 587);

        // Get session
        Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
        session.setDebug(true);

        Store store = session.getStore("pop3");
        store.connect(popHost, username, password);

        // Define message
        MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
        message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
        message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, 
          new InternetAddress(to));
        message.setSubject("Hello JavaMail");
        message.setText("Welcome to Yahoo's JavaMail");

        // Send message
        Transport.send(message);

If any of you have a working code, could you post it? Thanks

Try this one using Spring Framework Mail service. It works for me:

Properties props = new Properties();
        props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
        props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");

        JavaMailSenderImpl mailSender = new JavaMailSenderImpl();
        mailSender.setHost("smtp.mail.yahoo.com");
        mailSender.setPort(587);
        mailSender.setUsername("username1");
        mailSender.setPassword("password");
        mailSender.setJavaMailProperties(props);

        SimpleMailMessage message = new SimpleMailMessage();

        message.setFrom(email);
        message.setTo(email);
        message.setSubject(subject);
        message.setText(text);
        mailSender.send(message);

According to various websites I've seen, the SMTP port for Yahoo is 465

Actually, now that I look at the stack trace, it looks like the problem is occurring when you attempt to connect to the POP3 store. If you are just trying to send email, I don't know why you would need to connect to POP3 at all.

Do you have premium account?

Or is it a Yahoo problem?

Moved to the appropriate forum, but some versions of yahoo (specifically yahoo.com) do not support POP3 access to mail unless you have signed up for a premium account or have a partner service (like AT&T/Yahoo). When it says "Access is not permitted", that's probably what it means - you don't have a premium account.

[AUTH] Access to this service is not permitted

EDIT: see also Java Mail: Unable to send email via Yahoo for working example.

I have checked this page and it seems that your username must be the full address, so you have to change:

String username = "classified";

To:

String username = "[email protected]";

And the SMTP of yahoo is 465 using TLS/SSL.

 props.put("mail.smtp.port", 465);
