Try this.

public class Emailer{
@Autowired
JavaMailSender mailSender;

public void sendMail() throws MessagingException {
    MimeMessage message = mailSender.createMimeMessage();
    MimeMessageHelper helper = new MimeMessageHelper(message, "utf-8");
    helper.setFrom("[email protected]");
    helper.setTo(new InternetAddress[] {
            new InternetAddress("[email protected]"),
            new InternetAddress("[email protected]")
            });
    helper.setSubject("my subject");
    
    StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
    sb.append("<table>");
    for (BlogDto dto:newBlog) {
        sb.append("<tr>");
        sb.append("<td>");
        sb.append("Cell");
        sb.append("</td>");
        sb.append("</tr>");
    }
    sb.append("</table>");
    this.mailSender.send(message);
    this.logger.info("Email sent");
    return;
}

}

import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;
import org.springframework.mail.javamail.MimeMessageHelper;

MimeMessage mimeMessage = mailSender.createMimeMessage();
MimeMessageHelper helper = new MimeMessageHelper(mimeMessage, "utf-8");
String htmlMsg = "<h3>Hello World!</h3>";
//mimeMessage.setContent(htmlMsg, "text/html"); /** Use this or below line **/
helper.setText(htmlMsg, true); // Use this or above line.
helper.setTo("[email protected]");
helper.setSubject("This is the test message for testing gmail smtp server using spring mail");
helper.setFrom("[email protected]");
mailSender.send(mimeMessage);

You might be interested in checking this article: "Rich HTML email in Spring with Thymeleaf" http://www.thymeleaf.org/doc/articles/springmail.html

It uses Thymeleaf as a templating view layer, but the concepts and Spring-specific code explained there are common to all Spring applications.

Besides, it has a companion example application which source code you can use as a base for your needs.

String emailMessage = report.toString();
            Map velocityContext = new HashMap();
            velocityContext.put("firstName", "messi");
            velocityContext.put("Date",date );  
            velocityContext.put("Exception",emailMessage );
            String text = VelocityEngineUtils.mergeTemplateIntoString(velocityEngine, "VelocityTemplate.vm","UTF-8", velocityContext);

In Spring this should be done this way:

Your email class:

import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;
import org.springframework.mail.SimpleMailMessage;
import org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSender;
import org.springframework.mail.javamail.MimeMessageHelper;

public class HTMLMail
{
    private JavaMailSender mailSender;


    public void setMailSender(JavaMailSender mailSender) {
        this.mailSender = mailSender;
    }

    public void sendMail(String from, String to, String subject, String msg) {
        try {

            MimeMessage message = mailSender.createMimeMessage();

            message.setSubject(subject);
            MimeMessageHelper helper;
            helper = new MimeMessageHelper(message, true);
            helper.setFrom(from);
            helper.setTo(to);
            helper.setText(msg, true);
            mailSender.send(message);
        } catch (MessagingException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(HTMLMail.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
    }


}

beans:(Spring-Mail.xml)

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd">

    <bean id="mailSender" class="org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl">
        <property name="host" value="smtp.gmail.com" />
        <property name="port" value="587" />
        <property name="username" value="[email protected]" />
        <property name="password" value="yourpassword" />

        <property name="javaMailProperties">
            <props>
                <prop key="mail.smtp.auth">true</prop>
                <prop key="mail.smtp.starttls.enable">true</prop>
            </props>
        </property>
    </bean>
    <bean id="htmlMail" class="com.mohi.common.HTMLMail">
        <property name="mailSender" ref="mailSender" />
    </bean>
</beans>

Usage:

ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("Spring-Mail.xml");

        HTMLMail mm = (HTMLMail) context.getBean("htmlMail");
        String html="<p>Hi!</p><a href=\"google.com\">Link text</a>";
    mm.sendMail("[email protected]",
            "[email protected]",
            "test html email",
            html);

I don't think that SimpleMailMessage class has such options.

I'm sure that you can do it with JavaMailSender and MimeMessagePreparator, because you need to set MIME content type for HTML.

See this link for help:
