From-Name in e-mail

Wednesday 11 February 2009 4:23:56 am

Hi There,

Short question:
Does anybody know where i can declare the FROM NAME in an email sent by eZ System? At the moment all mails from the user registration are send from the correct E-Mail Adress but without FROM Name. So Postfix uses www-data as sender for relaying (not really nice).

Is there a site.ini setting available??

Thanks & regards,
Mike

Hallo Norbert,

I think

[MailSettings]
Transport=sendmail
EmailSender=email@domain.com

is only used for the sender E-Mail Adress, not the FROM Name.
Sender E-Mail is already correct, but From Name is missing.

Any idea?

Regards,
Michael

Hi Mike,
after some test (I realized that I'll need this feature too) I discoverd the following:

EmailSender is the Email address in the from field.
Passing the -F option to sendmail adds the name in the From field.

[MailSettings]
EmailSender=noreply@yourdomain.com
SendmailOptions[]=-F
SendmailOptions[]=YourCompany

becomes
Your Company <noreply@yourdomain.com>
in the From header.

However for me the sendmail option only works for the Admin Notification.
So when a user registers he gets an email with only the EmailSender in the From field, while only the Admin gets the correct Header.

Also on InformationCollection Emails the From field is only the Email adress specified in the EmailSender setting.

@Anyone
Why is this?
Or is there an entirely different solution to this Problem?

Regards,
Norbert

Hi,

I tried many different solutions to define the sender <from> name with postfix - no chance. Sendmail Options should also work on postfix but they do not.

:(((

I nearly can't believe, that nobody else has this problem!?

Ciao,
Mike
