Method: RMail::Header#address_list_assign

Defined in:
lib/rmail/header.rb

#address_list_assign(field_name, addresses) ⇒ Object

Set a given field to a list of supplied addresses.

The addresses may be a String, RMail::Address, or Array. If a String, it is parsed for valid email addresses and those found are used. If an RMail::Address, the result of RMail::Address#format is used. If an Array, each element of the array must be either a String or RMail::Address and is treated as above.

This method is used to implement many of the convenience methods such as #from=, #to=, etc.
