If you want MAPI you could use OpenMapi.
If you don't need to use MAPI, you can instead use JavaMail API, This url has a tutorial about JavaMail API. http://www.mkyong.com/java/javamail-api-sending-email-via-gmail-smtp-example/
Note that JavaMail does not support MAPI and has no plans to do so in the future.

OpenMapi is not yet available as far as my research goes and Javamail relies on a mail server. I want to send mails directly (hidden for the user) using the default mail client of the operating system running my application. So is it impossible to do this at all? – Markus Jul 09 '13 at 06:34

I can't understand what the "default mail client of the operating system" means? – Amith Mendis Jul 09 '13 at 06:41
