How to change sent from-showing from administrator in all mails
January 22, 2009, 07:25:45 am
Hello from Vienna

First thanks for the great app.  We are an Human Rights NGO and we love Civi-crm.

The only problem that we have not solved is that when we send emails from Civi-crm our recipeints see Administrator in the sent from field.  How can we change this?

Sincerely appreciate any and all tips.

Thanks again for the great app! and have a good day.

glg,

Gregory

1. would be cool if you'll could add a case study of your use of CiviCRM here: http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Case+Studies

2. Are you end email via CiviMail or "Send Email to Contacts"? In CiviMail the From Name/Email address is entered when you go thru the "send mailing" wizard. For the latter, you will need to edit the contact record of "Administrator" and add a valid name etc. Typically the contact id of Administrator is 1. The from name/email is of the logged in user (in your case Administrator)
