Sending email SMTP[Answered]

I am trying to send an email using SMTP. The backend works, and i can send emails via Swagger. But i just cannot make it work from the Blazor FrontEnd
I get the MimeKit No address found exception as seen in the snippet.
I have a service on the client that refers to the controller and service on server side.
Gonna attach snippets of relevant classes
Thanks for the help in advance!

Set a breakpoint and see what the value of request.Torequest.To is

Yes, it just seems that the ''To'' email is not recognized by MimeKit, and im not sure why

That specific error shows up when the startIndex and endIndex is equal in the parser so my guess is your To is an empty string or something if I read the parser correctly

Yes, the issue is definitely, that the frontend input is not processed to the backend. I've been trying a few things to fix it, but i just cant figure it out. Maybe i'll look into SendGrid

Try use [FromBody] instead of [FromForm] because I see you are posting using json and I think the attributes handle the information differently?

But as you can see, it does take the input

I'm not an asp.net user so I'm kind of stabbing in the dark

Oh true, [FromForm] was used for swagger testing, lets try that

I was reading this stack overflow post that stated

The FromForm attribute is for incoming data from a submitted form sent by the content type application/x-www-form-urlencoded while the FromBody will parse the model the default way, which in most cases are sent by the content type application/json, from the request body.
