I'm trying to use JavaMail 1.6 to send an email to a local MailHog SMTP server in Java 8. The code is:
// import javax.mail.*;
// import javax.mail.internet.*;
// import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage.RecipientType;
String from = "[email protected]";
String to = "[email protected]";
String subject = "Sample subject";
String body = "Test message, please ignore";
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", "localhost");
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.port", "1025");
Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
session.setDebug(true);
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
message.addRecipient(RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(to));
message.setSubject(subject);
message.setText(body);
Transport.send(message);
When the code is ran, it will start and establish a session with the server, and step through SMTP until it's supposed to send data. After this, it sends QUIT\r\n and hangs, not sending any content.

Looking around, I can find a few references of JavaMail hanging while sending mail, but none of them seem to hang at this part of the session. It seems like it should be a misconfiguration related to message.setText. However, I get the same behavior when using message.setContent(body, "text/plain"), using MimeMultipart and adding a MimeBodyPart with the content, and also when using a DataHandler. Furthermore, if it is a misconfiguration of the content, I find it weird that it's sending a QUIT immediately without first terminating the DATA. As far as I know, a normal exchange would look something like:
DATA
354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>
Test message, please ignore
.
QUIT

Answering my own question:
JavaMail (Maven package javax.mail/javax.mail-api) was moved to Jakarta Mail (com.sun.mail/jakarta.mail). I'm not really sure what's wrong with the old package, but once I updated the appropriate maven dependency from
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.mail</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.mail-api</artifactId>
<version>1.6.2</version>
</dependency>
to
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun.mail</groupId>
<artifactId>jakarta.mail</artifactId>
<version>1.6.4</version>
</dependency>
The issue resolved itself with no further code changes needed.
