common mail是一个小而方便的mail包，他实现了对Java Mail的封装，使用起来十分的方便，但是我在使用他的时候发现，使用纯文本的内容发送，结果是乱码，代码如下：
public class TestCommonMail {
public static void main(String[] args) throws EmailException, MessagingException {
SimpleEmail email = new SimpleEmail();
email.setCharset("GB2312");
email.setHostName("smtp.163.com");
email.setSubject("test");
email.addTo("test@163.com");
email.setFrom("test@163.com");
email.setMsg("我的测试");
email.setAuthentication("test", "test");
email.send();
}
}

分析了一下commons mail的源码找到了原因。源码如下:
public class SimpleEmail extends Email
{
public Email setMsg(String msg) throws EmailException, MessagingException
{
if (EmailUtils.isEmpty(msg))
{
throw new EmailException("Invalid message supplied");
}

setContent(msg, TEXT_PLAIN);
return this;
}
}

Email代码片段
public void setContent(Object aObject, String aContentType)
{
this.content = aObject;
if (EmailUtils.isEmpty(aContentType))
{
this.contentType = null;
}
else
{
// set the content type
this.contentType = aContentType;

// set the charset if the input was properly formed
String strMarker = "; charset=";
int charsetPos = aContentType.toLowerCase().indexOf(strMarker);
if (charsetPos != -1)
{
// find the next space (after the marker)
charsetPos += strMarker.length();
int intCharsetEnd =
aContentType.toLowerCase().indexOf(" ", charsetPos);

if (intCharsetEnd != -1)
{
this.charset =
aContentType.substring(charsetPos, intCharsetEnd);
}
else
{
this.charset = aContentType.substring(charsetPos);
}
}
}
}

email.send();的send方法将调用
public void buildMimeMessage() throws EmailException
{
try
{
this.getMailSession();
this.message = new MimeMessage(this.session);

if (EmailUtils.isNotEmpty(this.subject))
{
if (EmailUtils.isNotEmpty(this.charset))
{
this.message.setSubject(this.subject, this.charset);
}
else
{
this.message.setSubject(this.subject);
}
}

// ========================================================
// Start of replacement code
if (this.content != null)
{
this.message.setContent(this.content, this.contentType);
}
// end of replacement code
// ========================================================
else if (this.emailBody != null)
{
this.message.setContent(this.emailBody);
}
else
{
this.message.setContent("", Email.TEXT_PLAIN);
}

if (this.fromAddress != null)
{
this.message.setFrom(this.fromAddress);
}
else
{
throw new EmailException("Sender address required");
}

if (this.toList.size() + this.ccList.size() + this.bccList.size() == 0)
{
throw new EmailException(
"At least one receiver address required");
}

if (this.toList.size() > 0)
{
this.message.setRecipients(
Message.RecipientType.TO,
this.toInternetAddressArray(this.toList));
}

if (this.ccList.size() > 0)
{
this.message.setRecipients(
Message.RecipientType.CC,
this.toInternetAddressArray(this.ccList));
}

if (this.bccList.size() > 0)
{
this.message.setRecipients(
Message.RecipientType.BCC,
this.toInternetAddressArray(this.bccList));
}

if (this.replyList.size() > 0)
{
this.message.setReplyTo(
this.toInternetAddressArray(this.replyList));
}

if (this.headers.size() > 0)
{
Iterator iterHeaderKeys = this.headers.keySet().iterator();
while (iterHeaderKeys.hasNext())
{
String name = (String) iterHeaderKeys.next();
String value = (String) headers.get(name);
this.message.addHeader(name, value);
}
}

if (this.message.getSentDate() == null)
{
this.message.setSentDate(getSentDate());
}

if (this.popBeforeSmtp)
{
Store store = session.getStore("pop3");
store.connect(this.popHost, this.popUsername, this.popPassword);
}
}
catch (MessagingException me)
{
throw new EmailException(me);
}
}
由代码可以知道纯文本方式最终调用了Java Mail的
message.setContent(this.content, this.contentType);
content是内容
contentType是类型，如text/plain,
(我们可以试试直接用Java mail发邮件，设置文本内容不使用setText方法，也使用setContent("测试", "text/plain")方式，你可以看到内容也是乱码)
关键就在于text/plain，我们改成text/plain;charset=gb2312，ok乱码解决了。在commons mail我们看SimpleEmail 类中setMsg方法调用的就是 setContent(msg, TEXT_PLAIN);我们只需要将Email类中的常量TEXT_PLAIN修改一下加入 charset=你的字符集 ，重新打包jar，这样就可以了
