I am trying to send email from matlab 2012 using the following code. I just want to send a mail from my account to myself. But I am getting an error message.
mail = 'mygmail@gmail.com'; %Your GMail email address
password = 'mypassword'; %Your GMail password
Then this code will set up the preferences properly:
setpref('Internet','E_mail',mail);setpref('Internet','SMTP_Server','smtp.gmail.com');setpref('Internet','SMTP_Username',mail);setpref('Internet','SMTP_Password',password);props = java.lang.System.getProperties;props.setProperty('mail.smtp.auth','true');props.setProperty('mail.smtp.socketFactory.class', 'javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory');props.setProperty('mail.smtp.socketFactory.port','465');
Send email. The first argument is recipient.
sendmail('mymail@gmail.com','Test from MATLAB','Hello! This is a test from MATLAB!')
Error message :
Error using sendmail (line 164)Authentication failed.Error in email (line 15)sendmail('mygmail@gmail.com','Test from MATLAB','Hello! This is a testfrom MATLAB!')
