KIS000577 - CSendUi cannot resolve phone number from a name specified in To: field

CSendUi cannot resolve phone number from a name specified in To: field		KIS000577
Overview	-
Category	Symbian C++
Subcategory	Messaging, Framework
Reported against	S60 2nd Edition S60 3rd Edition
Date identified	February 8, 2007
Symptoms	-
Detailed description	Trying to use CSendUi::CreateAndSendMessageL() to create and send an SMS with the ’To:’ field filled in with a phone number works as expected. However, using a name instead of a phone number returns the error message ’Invalid Recipient Information’ even if the name exists in the address book and has a phone number assigned to it.
How to reproduce	-
Solution	SendUi does not provide a feature for automatic lookup of phone numbers or other contact information. If the name of the receiver is known when launching the SMS editor, then it is possible to use the Contacts API to search for the phone number(s) assigned to the contact.
