Create an Inline-Forward Email

See more Email Object Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Email.ToForward method, which creates an inline-forward email based on this email. The forward is returned in the argument, and the source email is not modified. The returned email can be edited — adding recipients, prepending a note — before sending. This example forwards a message and adds a recipient.

$email = New-Object Chilkat.Email
$email.Subject = "Quarterly results"

$email.AddTo("Bob","bob@example.com")
$email.Body = "Here are the quarterly results."

#  Create an inline-forward email from this message.
$fwd = New-Object Chilkat.Email

$success = $email.ToForward($fwd)
if ($success -eq $false) {
    $($email.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

#  The forward can be edited to add recipients before sending.
$fwd.AddTo("Carol","carol@example.com")
