David,
Yes I do have an SMTP server running on my system. My Windows Server 2003
has a POP3,SMTP mail server running and the mail server name is the same as
the host computer name:
XXXXXX-YYYYYY1. It is using port 25.

The host computer name is the name of my computer, it is listed under the
"computer name" tab under "System Properties".

I think I know what the problem is... I need to be using the following:

             "prop.put("mail.smtp.host","XXXXXX-YYYYYY1");

Instead of:

             "props.put("smtp.covad.net", "XXXXXX-YYYYYY1");

I'll keep you posted.
Thanks again.
