When an email is sent directly from a CTA, for the recipient Sender Email is shown instead of Sender Name. According to Support, this is expected behavior.

We would like to have the option to display the name for the recipient, exactly as if the email was sent by the CSMs themselves.

Hi @abeck0625 

Can you elaborate with screenshot on where you want Sender Name to be shown instead of email id?

Hi, please find attached a screenshot. This is a Gainsight email I sent to myself directly from a CTA. As you can see, my email address is displayed as the Sender:

Email sent from Gainsight CTA

When I send an email from Outlook, my full name is displayed instead of the email address:

Email sent directly from Outlook

We are looking to enable the second option for emails that are sent from Gainsight CTAs. Please also refer to the Zendesk ticket #193828 for details.

@revathimenon @ssamarth this was supposed to have been resolved as a bug 2 years ago. What happened?  This is presents a very unprofessional look and needs to get fixed ASAP.

UPDATE: Upon re-read I see this issue is related to a regular sender - I reached out to support about the fact that the Organizational Wide Email sender does not display a sender name and they directed me here.

This functionality to be enabled such that when using an Org Wide Email we can designate the sender name for the Org Wide Email, because it’s showing up in customer inboxes like this:

@caryn @meaganball this should be solved for regular send emails from CTA . Are you facing this issue even now?
