Technical Tip

Multiple addresses for an email message

Sending an email message to multiple recipients is a very common scenario and there are many ways to do that using Aspose.Network. Normally, we add a recipient of an email message by using MailMessage.To.Add() method. But, to add more recipients, Add() method needs to be called many times. So, Aspose.Network also provides a smarter way to perform this task using its powerful email address parser as shown below:

[C#]

//Instantiating a MailMessage object that represents an email message
Aspose.Network.Mail.MailMessage message;
message = new MailMessage();

//Specifying multiple recipients for the email message
message.To = "Tom <Tom@aspose.com>, Jerry <Jerry@aspose.com>";

[VB]

‘Instantiating a MailMessage object that represents an email message
Dim message As New Aspose.Network.Mail.MailMessage

‘Specifying multiple recipients for the email message
message.To = "Tom <Tom@aspose.com>, Jerry <Jerry@aspose.com>"

Using this approach, email addresses are specified as a string with display names followed by their email addresses separated by commas, which tell the parser that multiple addresses are used.

Aspose becomes a Sun Business Partner

We are very pleased to announce our new business partnership with the company Sun. For many years the development community has primarily known Aspose as a .NET component provider. However, Aspose has also had a very strong initiative to support the Java platform as well.
