Re: sendmail

Eric,

this code appears to be only using the To, as you describe, set on the line

// Set the to address
>    message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new
InternetAddress(to));

the way I implemented a javamail client, was to pass three seperate object
arrays as parameters, so instead of what you have

String to       = args[1];

which i presume is receiving an recipient email address, but no recipient
name, i have

Object[] to;

Object[] toname;

Object[] totype;



to = (Object[])args[0];

toname = (Object[])args[1];

totype = (Object[])args[2];



This way I can pass in a list of recipient email address's, recipient names,
and recipient types (to,cc or bcc). I use the following loop to process the
addresses

// Set to Addresses

for (int i=0;i < to.length;i++) {


if (to[i]!=null) {

tempString = (String)to[i];

thisAddress.setAddress(tempString);

tempString = (String)toname[i];

thisAddress.setPersonal(tempString);


if (((String)totype[i]).equals("0"))

msg.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, thisAddress);

if (((String)totype[i]).equals("1"))

msg.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.CC, thisAddress);

if (((String)totype[i]).equals("2"))

msg.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.BCC, thisAddress);

}

}

cheers

The JavaMail class uses sendmail to send email but I noticed that there is
no argument for cc or bcc.  I assume that sendmail is a class and contained
in a package.  My question is, how do I determine what (other) arguments
sendmail will accept?  How do I determine what package sendmail is included
in?  The following is the JavaMail source.  Thanks in advance for any
assistance.
