Resolve Method

Resolves an email address.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Sub Resolve(ByVal EmailAddress As String)

[C#]
public void Resolve(string emailAddress);

Remarks

This method resolves an email address. Calling this method directs the component to query DNSServer at port DNSPort about MX records related to EmailAddress.

The server's response is provided through one or more Response events.

After the query completes, the MailServer property is set to the best mail server and the Status property has the result description of the response.

Valid queries are email addresses like name@company.com or hostnames and domains like domain.com.

Example (Determine Top Priority Mail Server of Email Address)

MXControl.Resolve "email@server.com"
While MXControl.MailServer = ""
	MXControl.DoEvents()
End While
BestMailServer = MXControl.MailServer

NOTE: This method has a corresponding asynchronous version (ResolveAsync) for use in the WinRT environment.
