Use %adm-InitiatorEmail% as sender adress (from)

Question

Is this possible?

Example:
User A executes a task in Adaxes. That task triggers a mail to another user. That mail needs to have User A as a reply adress.

To clearify, i've done this through a PS script, but i wanted to know if there was a way through the"Send email notification" action.

Hello,

Unfortunately, there is no possibility to specify the From address in the Send email notification action. However, we have the feature in our roadmap: https://www.adaxes.com/info_roadmap.htm.

As a workaround, you can use the below PowerShell script to send the notification and specify %adm-InitiatorEmail% in the From field. In the script:

• $to - Specifies the recipient's e-mail address.
• $subject - Specifies the subject of the email.
• $textBody - Specifies the body of the email.
• $from - Specifies the address from which the email will be sent.

# Bind to the 'ServiceSettings' container
$wellknownContainerPath = $Context.GetWellKnownContainerPath("ServiceSettings")
$serviceSettings = $Context.BindToObject($wellknownContainerPath)

# Email settings
$to = "%mail%" # TODO: modify me
$subject = "My Subject" # TODO: modify me
$textBody = "My Message" # TODO: modify me
$from = "%adm-InitiatorEmail%" # TODO: modify me

# Send mail
$serviceSettings.MailSettings.SendMail($to, $subject, $textBody, $Null, $from, $Null, $Null)
