For providing such functionality there's a Java API called JavaMail API. It provides a mail and messaging framework that can be used to send messages from the host mail server.

Compute 2008
and
HeadStart 2008

Compute 2008 and HeadStart 2008 sponsored by ACM Bangalore is a set of co-located International conferences aimed at promoting and showcasing new research and applied technology implementations.

Headstart is a showcase of most exciting products and technology in India – with a big difference. Unlike several existing showcase events that bring together VCs and Entrepreneurs together, Headstart and co-located Compute 2008 covers the entire innovation lifecycle in one place. This means participation from ALL the players in the innovation lifecycle: academicians, researchers, entrepreneurs, marketers, large companies, venture capitalists and customers, which we believe is essential to accelerate the pace of innovation in India.

The 3-day event will feature presentations of new products and research; technology tutorials; panel discussions on segments such as consumer services, mobility, enterprise applications and embedded systems. We have workshops on how to identify business opportunities, raise money, build products and effectively sell them in the marketplace.
