Use Java mail api to send mail that you can do through ultimately you need an SMTP server to deliver the mail, and if you want it local you can use iis SMTP mail, hmail server or other available SMTP servers, and need to configure it correctly to send lots of mail.

You don't build a mail server. You use the JavaMail API to access a mail server (SMTP server) in order to send emails. Here is an explanation of the JavaMail API.
