Problem; I need to avoid the "correct e-mail format" for the ex Bcc field, what i need is the CRM e-mail form to accept ex: Firm@Contact@1234567 type of address so it can be delivered to outlook that already have integrated support for this "email type" through a add'in from 3.party Fax solution. br. webbear

    Do you want to send this emails via mail merge?

    thanks for respons.

    No, was thinking about the "Send Email" (send a email regarding this contact) you have when you open up a contact. In this form there are To, cc and Bcc field, all Partylist /lookups, what i would like is to put in  "my custom email  test@test@123456" in the Bcc field.

    But if it is easyer to modify the mail merge to also send to a test@test@123456 email i would be more than happy to know how :)

    You could write a custom workflow activity or plugin that gets fired on the send message of an email (Image has to be configured as "post"with the name "postImage" in this case).

    The code for the plugin, that sends and email to the fax account with same subject and body, could look like this:

    if (context.PrimaryEntityName == EntityName.email.ToString() && context.PostEntityImages.Contains("postImage"))
    {

    System.Net.Mail.MailMessage faxmail = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();

    System.Net.Mail.MailAddressCollection faxes = new System.Net.Mail.MailAddressCollection();

    faxes.Add(new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress("test@test@123456", "FAX"));

    faxmail.To = new System.Net.Mail.MailAddressCollection().Add(faxes);

    DynamicEntity email = (DynamicEntity)context.PostEntityImages["postImage"];

    faxmail.Body = ((String)email.Properties["description"]);

    faxmail.Subject = ((String)email.Properties["subject"]);

    System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient client = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient("mail");

    client.Send(faxmail);

    }

    Will this fit your needs?
