Why JavaMail connection timeout is too long

Question

In my application I connect to server to authenticate users. This is code:

try {
        Properties prop = new Properties();
        prop.put(\"mail.smtp.startt         


        

Answer 1

Can you setup the Socket I/O timeout as well. When it is connected but failed to read data from the server then it will continue to wait.

prop.put("mail.smtp.timeout", 1000);

Read timeout indicates you are connected but not able to read data from the server.
