' The email's FROM name and address can be set in several ways.
' It can include an optional friendly name (which is just a description),
' and it must include an address.
' For example:
set email1 = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Email")
email1.Subject = "test"
email1.Body = "test"
email1.FromName = "Joe Sample"
email1.FromAddress = "joe.sample@example.com"
' the From property contains both the FromName and FromAddress
' This produces the following output:
' From: "Joe Sample" <joe.sample@example.com>
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( "From: " & email1.From) & "</pre>"
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( "--------------------------------------------------") & "</pre>"
' Examine the MIME of the email:
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( email1.GetMime()) & "</pre>"
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( "--------------------------------------------------") & "</pre>"
' Output is:
' MIME-Version: 1.0
' Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2016 12:32:13 -0600
' Message-ID: <02B461C6D12FA6686C3151A649ED8D5BBFBE0721@CHILKAT13>
' Content-Type: text/plain
' Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
' X-Priority: 3 (Normal)
' Subject: test
' From: "Joe Sample" <joe.sample@example.com>
'
' test
' --------------------------------------------
' Alternatively, the From property can be set, and this
' implicitly sets the FromName and FromAddress properties.
set email2 = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Email")
email2.From = "Joe Sample <joe.sample@example.com>"
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( "FromName: " & email2.FromName) & "</pre>"
