Get a Bcc Recipient's Name Only

See more Email Object Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Email.GetBccName method, which returns only the friendly-name part (not the address) of the Nth blind carbon-copy recipient. The index is zero-based. This example adds two Bcc recipients and prints each one's display name.

Background: The display name is the human-friendly label attached to an address, like Joe Smith for joe@example.com. It is optional and purely cosmetic, but useful for presentation — for instance rendering "Joe Smith" in a UI instead of the raw address. GetBccName returns just that name; if a recipient was added without one, the result is empty.
