  The person must be a contact or user in the system.  It's not a string field, it's holds activity parties which are contacts or users.

  Hi

  You can write the email address directly in the to field of the Email in CRM. For that you need to do the following setting.

  Settings --> Administration --> System Settings --> Email tab --> 'Set Email Form Option'

  In that set the 'Allow email messages to unresolved email recipients to be sent' to Yes.

  Then it allows sending emails to direct email addresses.

  For creating new email records programmatically follow the link given by Mahender or you can use the following links

  For sending emails:

        subject.Value = "TEST BL";
  
        properties.Add(subject);
  
        DynamicEntity emailentity = new DynamicEntity();
        emailentity.Properties = properties.ToArray() ;
        emailentity.Name = EntityName.email.ToString();
  
        TargetCreateDynamic createEmail = new TargetCreateDynamic();
        createEmail.Entity = emailentity;
  
        CreateRequest request = new CreateRequest();
