How to add a text to the "From" field in Email Tem

Post by ayilmaz » Wed Mar 12, 2008 12:52 pm

Hi,
I have set up the smtp server and when I purchase a product I get an order confirmation email. However in the from field it only says "info" which is not what I want. I want the company name to show up too as in "Company Name" info@abc.com. The email address in the Order Confirmation Template From field is info@abc.com. If I add any text here which is not an email address, it throws an exception while trying to send an email.

How can I add a user friendly text that displays the company name to show up in the recipients mail box? I also asked my hosting support and they said the configuration needs to be somewhere in AbleCommerce.

Thanks a lot,
Ayilmaz

I think there was a post on this when 7 first came out and I think you can't add a name there.

Oh no. I hope this is not the case. I think it is a must feature to provide a reputable company image no some junk like email...Any able commerce admins? Please help!!!
