There is error if I change my Line 11 to this:

 

mail.setToAddresses('forseen_destiny@live.com');


Error: Compile Error: Method does not exist or incorrect signature: [Messaging.SingleEmailMessage].setToAddresses(String) at line 11 column 1

string[] toaddress = 'sdff@hhh.com';

mail.setToAddresses(toaddress);
