So.

Can I bounce a question off you please?

This script is a lot smarter than the ones I'm used to.  It's seems to do
some checking to make sure the SMTPfrom address is legit, and ignores a name
I pass to it.

 

Example:  If  I set 

$SMTPfrom = "IT Help Desk <[email protected]>",

The admin emails won't send. (I don't actually have mailbox there).  Most
VBS scripts I'm used to will send despite the address not being valid.

 

And if I set:

$SMTPfrom = "IT Help Desk <[email protected]>",

It ignores the smtp name of "IT Help Desk" and overrides it with the actual
mailbox name, in my case 'Administrative Mailbox'

 

None of this is an actual problem.  It's just different (and smarter).  And
I'm trying to get more familiar with powershell.

Care to fill me on how this works (Or how I can force example 1 to work?).

 

Can't seem to find any info online.

 

Not a big deal if you're busy.

Sam
