Change in behavior with MailMessage and msg files

Aspose.Email Product Family
1

In version 21.12.0, I load an msg file with the default MsgLoadOptions, and From.Address contains a value.

In version 22.3.0, if I load an msg file with the default MsgLoadOptions, then the From.Address is empty. The property OriginalAddressString contains “/O=…/OU=…/CN=RECIPIENTS/CN=…”

If I set MsgLoadOptions.KeepOriginalEmailAddresses to true, then From.Address contains the value when using 21.12.0,

In version 21.12.0, I load an msg file with the default MsgLoadOptions and an msg file that lacks a From address, the result has the correct value for the To address.

In version 22.3.0, with that same load options with MsgLoadOptions.KeepOriginalEmailAddresses set to true and an msg file that lacks a From address, then the To address collection is empty.

Project attached. It’s a unit test project, not a console app, since there are 4 separate cases to test.AsposeTest.zip (69.4 KB)

In this case, in version 22.3.0 we see correct behaviour. The From.Address intended for SMTP address, so when address is Exchange format From.Address is empty, but to avoid full loses address string we keep it in OriginalAddressString.

In this case, issue with empty To address collection was fixed. Please use the latest version of Aspose.Email for .NET 22.9.
