CreateEmailAddress Mail Method:
Helper function that builds a full email
address from a display name and an email address.
Syntax:
[C++]
HRESULT CreateEmailAddress(BSTR name, BSTR
email, BSTR *pstrEmailAddress);
[VB]
Function CreateEmailAddress(name As String,
email As String) As String
Parameters:
name
Display name part of the email address.
email
Email address, must be a valid
RFC2821 address.
Remark:
A full email address is similar to what is
defined in the
RFC2822
as
mailbox,
except that the display name part supports unicode characters.
CreateEmailAddress allows you to create valid full email address, even
if the display name contains special chars like spaces, ", \, <,
>, etc. If the display name is empty or contains only spaces, the
email
parameter is returned.
Example:
[VB]
Dim oMail As New Mail
oMail.From = CreateEmailAddress("Sales Department",
"sales@emilltest.com")
' oMail.From now contains
"Sales Department" <sales@emilltest.com>
