javax.mail.internet.ParseException: In Content-Type string <text>, expected '/', got null
<p>I know this question was answered somewhere else but that didn't work for me so here i am.</p>

<p>Basically my code will login to your e-mail and send messages to multiple people.</p>

<p>of course its not done, i know that, but it has enough code to work because i based it off one of my command line programs that does the same thing.</p>

<p>anyways here is some code. </p>

<p>sender class : </p>

<p>}</p>

<p>and yes i know there are more efficient ways of doing this insted of sending the required fields through multiple methods but im lazy. thats why i came here :p</p>

<p>thanks for your help and lmk if you want the other 3 classes. but the error should be in this one.</p>
