GOAL

The UTL_SMTP package is designed for sending electronic mails (emails) over Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) as specified by RFC821.
Some mail servers require a username and password to be supplied. The following error: 530 Authentication required , would occur if the username and password for the SMTP server is needed to use UTL_SMTP.

The sample code below shows how to include the username/password for the Mail server.

SOLUTION

Create or replace procedure testmail(fromm varchar2,too varchar2,sub varchar2,body varchar2,port number)
is
objConnection utl_smtp.connection;
username varchar2(20):= '<username>';
password varchar2(20):= '<password>';
vrData varchar2(32000);
BEGIN
objConnection := UTL_smtp.open_connection('<your domain server name>',port);
UTL_smtp.helo(objConnection, '<your domain name server>');
utl_smtp.command(objConnection, 'AUTH LOGIN');
utl_smtp.command(objConnection,UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_VARCHAR2(utl_encode.base64_encode(utl_raw.cast_to_raw(username))));
utl_smtp.command(objConnection,UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_VARCHAR2(utl_encode.base64_encode(utl_raw.cast_to_raw(password))));

UTL_smtp.mail(objConnection, fromm);
UTL_smtp.rcpt(objConnection, too);
UTL_smtp.open_data(objConnection);
/* ** Sending the header information */
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection, 'From: '||fromm || UTL_tcp.CRLF);
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection, 'To: '||too || UTL_tcp.CRLF);

UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection, 'Subject: ' || sub || UTL_tcp.CRLF);
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection, 'MIME-Version: ' || '1.0' || UTL_tcp.CRLF);
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection, 'Content-Type: ' || 'text/html;');

UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection, 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: ' || '"8Bit"' ||UTL_tcp.CRLF);
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection,UTL_tcp.CRLF);
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection,UTL_tcp.CRLF||'<HTML>');
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection,UTL_tcp.CRLF||'<BODY>');
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection,UTL_tcp.CRLF||'<FONT COLOR="red" FACE="Courier New">'||body||'</FONT>');
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection,UTL_tcp.CRLF||'</BODY>');
UTL_smtp.write_data(objConnection,UTL_tcp.CRLF||'</HTML>');
UTL_smtp.close_data(objConnection);
UTL_smtp.quit(objConnection);
EXCEPTION
WHEN UTL_smtp.transient_error OR UTL_smtp.permanent_error THEN
UTL_smtp.quit(objConnection);
dbms_output.put_line(sqlerrm);
WHEN OTHERS THEN
UTL_smtp.quit(objConnection);
dbms_output.put_line(sqlerrm);
END testmail;
/

DECLARE
Vdate Varchar2(25);
BEGIN
Vdate := to_char(sysdate,'dd-mon-yyyy HH:MI:SS AM');
TESTMAIL('xxx.xxx@xxx.com', 'xxx.xxx@xxx.com', 'TESTMAIL','This is a UTL_SMTP-generated email at '|| Vdate,25);
END;
