I have been trying to implement a secure transmission of emailing using smtp protocol in AWS Lambda-CodePudding

It's a Spring Boot Java Lambda for secure smtp mail transmission and it does not work while it does work in another api code of Spring Boot. Whenever I run this code it gives either SecurityException on one occassion or AuthenticationException on another and when I use getDefaultInstance() method of Session instead of getInstance() it gives "cannot create a default session". It does not even creates an object for Authenticator and gives Authentication Exception on Lambda.

---code below--

import java.util.Properties;

import javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication;
import javax.mail.Session;

import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.core.env.Environment;

@Configuration
public class EmailConfig {
    
    private String username = "";
    private String password = "";
    @Bean
    public Session getEmailSession(Environment env) {
        Properties props = System.getProperties();
        props.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
        props.setProperty("mail.smtp.port", "587");
        props.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
        props.setProperty("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
        
        Session session = Session.getInstance(props,
                new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
                    protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
                        return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password); // username & password coming from vault
                    }
                });
        return session;
    }
}

Look at using the Amazon Simple Email Service if you need email functionality from either an AWS Lambda function or even a Spring Boot app. There are no issues when doing so. You can easily send an email message using this SES Java Code:

// snippet-start:[ses.java2.sendmessage.request.import]
import software.amazon.awssdk.regions.Region;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.ses.SesClient;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.ses.model.*;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.ses.model.Message;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.ses.model.Body;
import javax.mail.MessagingException;
// snippet-end:[ses.java2.sendmessage.request.import]
