Introduction
Quartz is a job scheduling framework which is used to schedule the jobs to be executed on the specified time schedule. Quartz can be downloaded from here. We discussed about quartz earlier - Quartz Example.
JavaMail is an API to send/recieve emails from Java Applications. JavaMail API 1.4.3 can be downloaded from here.
Spring has integration points to integrate Quartz and JavaMail which makes easy to use those APIs.
Example
Lets create a small demo application to show how to integrate Spring + Quartz + JavaMail.
Our application is to send birthday wishes emails to friends everyday at 6 AM.
Lets look at the implementation now.
