MailItem To property and display name

[Olivier Langlois]

Hi,

I would like to know if there is a way to format the string passed to
the 'To' property to specify to Outlook a 'display name' along with the
e-mail address provided to 'To'.

If not, what are the alternatives to provide a pair Display name/email
address to a newly created MailItem?

Thank you,
Olivier Langlois
