              BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();

            

              // Fill the message

              messageBodyPart.setText("hi");

            

              Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();

              multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);

            

              // Part two is attachment

              messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();

              String filename = "file.txt";

              DataSource source = new FileDataSource(filename);

              messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));

              messageBodyPart.setFileName(filename);

              multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);

            

              // Put parts in message

              message.setContent(multipart);

            

              // Send the message
