Email Recipients - AddTo, AddCC, AddBcc, AddMultipleTo, AddMultipleCC, AddMultipleBcc

This example demonstrates the usage of AddTo, AddCC, AddBcc, AddMultipleTo, AddMultipleCC, and AddMultipleBcc. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

-- An email can have any number of To, CC, or Bcc recipients.
local email = chilkat.Email.new()

-- One recipient per AddTo, AddCC, or AddBcc call may be added:
-- The 1st argument is the friendly name, the 2nd argument
-- is the email address.
local success = email:add_to("Chilkat Support", "support@chilkatsoft.com")
success = email:add_to("Person 1", "person1@chilkatsoft.com")
success = email:add_to("Person 2", "person2@chilkatsoft.com")
success = email:add_to("Person 3", "person3@chilkatsoft.com")

-- This email now has 4 "To" recipients.

-- Now add some CC recipients:
-- Note: the friendly name may be empty if desired...
success = email:add_cc("Person 4", "person4@chilkatsoft.com")
success = email:add_cc("", "person5@chilkatsoft.com")
success = email:add_cc("Person 6", "person6@chilkatsoft.com")

-- Now the email has 7 total recipients (3 "To" and 4 "CC")

-- Now add some Bcc recipients:
success = email:add_bcc("", "person7@chilkatsoft.com")
success = email:add_bcc("Person 8", "person8@chilkatsoft.com")

-- Clear all recipients via ClearTo, ClearCC, and ClearBcc:
email:clear_to()
email:clear_cc()
email:clear_bcc()

-- The email is now back to 0 recipients...

-- Add recipients just as before, but this time use
-- AddMultipleTo, AddMultipleCC, and AddMultipleBcc.
-- These methods accept a comma-separated list of
-- email addresses.  For example:

success = email:add_multiple_to("Chilkat Support <support@chilkatsoft.com>, Person 1 <person1@chilkatsoft.com>, Person 2 <person2@chilkatsoft.com>, Person 3 <person3@chilkatsoft.com>")

success = email:add_multiple_cc("Person 4 <person4@chilkatsoft.com>, person5@chilkatsoft.com, Person 6 <person6@chilkatsoft.com>")

success = email:add_multiple_bcc("person7@chilkatsoft.com, Person 8 <person8@chilkatsoft.com>")

email.body = "this is a test"
email.subject = "this is a test"

-- Display the MIME:
print(email:get_mime())
