Hi,

I am using the System.Web.Mail.MailMessage class to generate and send email
messages from my asp.net web app. I assumed that this was some simple
interface to send mail using SMTP, but in the documentation for the "To"
property it says:

"Recipients in the semicolon-delimited list can be either email addresses or
address book display names"

Can someone explain to me what "Address book" means in this context? I can't
find any other reference to address books in the framework documentation. Is
there some kind of behind-the-scenes integration with outlook or exchange?

Andy
 
thanks for the link

I couldn't find any info about the address book though. Since I'm sending
the mail from a server I don't see any way it could look up an address book
entry, so I reckon this is just a glitch in the documentation
