Finds a list of possible addresses that match the search criteria. The search is performed by using the town, street and building parameters. The town parameter is required, and at least one of the street and building parameters must also be specified.
This method provides the easiest alternative for finding an address if the postcode is not known. If the postcode is known, use the GetFullAddress method instead.
