NO BUG: 1.9.6.1 Form element "From email address" field issue

Browser: Chrome 121
OS: Windows

Hello,

I set up FluentSMTP to send out emails via a single contact form. The email address I set up (Google workspace email), is not mine, though I am working on the site. The issue is that even though I set the “From email address” as {{email_field_id_here}}, when I test the form, in my inbox I still see that my admin email was the sender. But then when I click reply, it suddenly sets the correct address (from the email field) to be the receiver. So:

  1. FluentSMTP settings sender set as: xxx@xxx.com
    1.1. Force sender name is set to true

  2. In form settings “From email address” is set to {{email field ID}}, se let’s say yyy@yyy.com, representing everyone who can use the form

However opening my admin inbox, I see zzz@zzz.com (my own admin email) as the sender. Same thing happens if I leave the “From email address” field empty in the form settings. FluentSMTP email log shows as though xxx@xxx.com was the sender, but inbox always shows zzz@zzz.com.

Sorry if this was confusing. It is for me as well hah.

Hi @alo ,

If I understand correctly, the expected sender should be xxx@xxx.com right?
Can you please send admin access to help@bricksbuilder.io and include this forum thread as a reference?
I will investigate that.

Hello @itchycode,

Ideally yes, xxx@xxx.com would be best.

Sure, email sent :slight_smile:

Thank you!

Just FYI, I just sent out a test email from FluentSMTP settings and it still used the wrong email as a sender, so this is in all likelihood not related to Bricks.
