msys.parseRFC2822Addresses

msys.parseRFC2822Addresses — Parse the address string per the address parsing rules defined in RFC2822

msys.parseRFC2822Addresses(addressstring, component);

Parse the address string per the address parsing rules defined in RFC2822. Note that this is NOT the same specification used to parse SMTP protocol addresses (RFC2821) .

Where the address header is made up of user+detail@domain, the possible components are:

• all the entire email address

• localpart everything before the @

• user the user portion

• detail the detail portion

• domain the domain portion

A table containing each detected address component is returned.

It is anticipated that you will usually want to use the msg:address_header function as it is more convenient.

Because this function is in the msys namespace, an explicit require is not necessary.
