Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
JohnCourt Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I am using the Mandrill email app with our 3.4 community, and I'd like to know if any Mandrill users here have found a way to clean up the "From" field in the recipients inboxes.My from "From" field looks like thisadministrator@mail128-132.atl41.mandrillapp.com; on behalf of; administrator@thepatriotwoodworker.cominstead of simply From: administrator@thepatriotwoodworker.comAny help or ideas on how to change this to pretty up the from field is greatly appreciated.
emilhem Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Have you made a free account with mandrill and input the key into your IPS ACP panel?We used mandrill for testing for a while and had no problem with our From field.

There's information about this on the Mandrill website.Stuart
Dmacleo Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 have noot had chance to deal with it but I was wondering too. mandrill allows template editing so I think there is a manner there.
