The ability to change the "FROM" email address when using the email assist feature

We are continuing to see a marked increase for the need to be able to change the "FROM" email address when you are using the email assist feature in cockpit. 

Perhaps the most pressing use case occurs when have to white label for a subdomain. Given that the email assist feature looks only at the currently logged in user we find our selves in the position where these emails are going out without proper white-labeling in place and this can cause a decrease in the probability of a successful delivery.

In addition to this, customers would like the ability to have the email come from the assignee of the task itself irrespective of who triggers the email.

    @Lila or another community moderator -- would it make sense to branch this new request into a new thread? I'm worries this will be overlooked with the implemented status attached.

    That other post is apparently no longer available ("Sorry! You don't have access to the content you requested"), and I want to be able to have CSMs send Email Assists from our "accounting@" email address. Does the post still exist somewhere, or should I create a new one?

    Seth, I haven't done it before but I *think* it's a combination of

    •  Admin/Email Configuration/Compliance
    •  Admin/Call to Action/General Settings/Choose From email address is email assist





    Then again I could be wrong :)   The documentation isn't very clear.

    Let me know if you get it figured out.

    Jeff, the issue is that those features allow me to change the [i]domain of the email address, but I can't change anything [i]before the '@' in the email address.

    Hitesh, what's the name of the category that the post was moved into? Is it an employees-only category?
