Hi guys,

Is there any way you can change the sender name? I tried using:

osmtp.FromAddr = "JustNameNoEmailAddress"

but it doesn't send the mail, and when I looked on Outlook, the email message is saved in the Drafts Folder. (I'm using EWS)

Thanks!

Hi, You should use

oSmtp.From = "your name"
oSmtp.FromAddr = "your address"

Tried this as well (in which it successfully send the mail) but it will not change the sender's name once I read the message from Recipient's end.

Thanks anyway...

Hi, I just did a test. I am sorry to say it is a Exchange EWS limit, the sender name will be changed to the display name in AD automatically no matter you set other name in mail header.

So you have to change your display name in your Exchange Active Directory manually.

You can run this method multiple times to add multiple addresses.

oSmtp.AddRecipientEx "support0@emailarchitect.net", 0
oSmtp.AddRecipientEx "support1@emailarchitect.net", 0

and ...

you can also add multiple recipients like this:

oSmtp.AddRecipientEx "support0@emailarchitect.net, support1@emailarchitect.net", 0

Hi,

I am trying to run the below script on SQL Server 2012 query analyzer that creates 'EASendMailObj.Mail' object using 'sp_OACreate', but getting: '-2147221005': 'Invalid class string' error.

Could you please look into this?

Script:

DECLARE @hr int
DECLARE @oSmtp int
DECLARE @result int
DECLARE @description nvarchar(255)

EXEC @hr = sp_OACreate 'EASendMailObj.Mail',@oSmtp OUT
print @hr

If @hr <> 0
BEGIN
EXEC @hr = sp_OAGetErrorInfo @oSmtp, NULL, @description OUT

IF @hr = 0
BEGIN
PRINT @description
END

RETURN
End

It seems that you didn't install EASendMail on the SQL server.
If SQL server is running on a remote server, you should install it on remote server as well.
