Sending mail through java requires password which expires every month

Question

I wrote a code that sends mail through javax.mail. But it requires authentication.And the password of the mail account needs to be changed every month.So if I hard code the password in code,I will have to manipulate the code every month. Is there any way to sort it out?

Any Help would be appreciated!!

You can use file or database to store password instead of hard coding it in code — muneebShabbir, Jul 27 '17 at 10:20

There is a number of solutions. The easiest ones are:

either keep your password in property file (not secure enough unless you implement some encryption mechanisms)
or propagate the password to your code as a command line parameter or an environment variable.
