Overview

To Field

The To field inherits to StructuredField and handles the To: header field in the email.

Sending to to a mail message will instantiate a Mail::Field object that has a ToField as its field type. This includes all Mail::CommonAddress module instance metods.

Only one To field can appear in a header, though it can have multiple addresses and groups of addresses.

Examples:

mail = Mail.new
mail.to = 'Mikel Lindsaar <mikel@test.lindsaar.net>, ada@test.lindsaar.net'
mail.to    #=> ['mikel@test.lindsaar.net', 'ada@test.lindsaar.net']
mail[:to]  #=> '#<Mail::Field:0x180e5e8 @field=#<Mail::ToField:0x180e1c4
mail['to'] #=> '#<Mail::Field:0x180e5e8 @field=#<Mail::ToField:0x180e1c4
mail['To'] #=> '#<Mail::Field:0x180e5e8 @field=#<Mail::ToField:0x180e1c4

mail[:to].encoded   #=> 'To: Mikel Lindsaar <mikel@test.lindsaar.net>, ada@test.lindsaar.net\r\n'
mail[:to].decoded   #=> 'Mikel Lindsaar <mikel@test.lindsaar.net>, ada@test.lindsaar.net'
mail[:to].addresses #=> ['mikel@test.lindsaar.net', 'ada@test.lindsaar.net']
mail[:to].formatted #=> ['Mikel Lindsaar <mikel@test.lindsaar.net>', 'ada@test.lindsaar.net']
