Get a To Recipient's Name Only

Demonstrates the Chilkat Email.GetToName method, which returns only the friendly-name part (not the address) of the Nth To recipient. The index is zero-based. This example adds two To 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. GetToName returns just that name; if a recipient was added without one, the result is empty, in which case fall back to GetToAddr.
