      This has always bothered me: currently the sender for all forum emails is contact@j-novel.club and when looking at the emails list the name shows up as simply contact which is kinda useless. Can you update whatever setting needed to show a proper J-Novel Club Forums name or something similar?

      No idea how NodeBB works but usually it's just a simple thing (unless it has a separate setting to enter a name):

      J-Novel Club Forums <contact@j-novel.club>

        @terabyte If you click on the three dotted lines in the upper right corner and select "Show Original" it will show the info as well as the full address. No idea how to change the label of the sender, without making a group label for it, though.

        I myself use a primarily text based (paid) email which doesn't show HTML by default, and even that shows the original address in parenthesis without going to the source. And unlike gmail it's easy to rename specific senders. It does have some issues showing text like Japanese so for those I have to use gmail or Proton...

          @korppi I think they're hoping to get them to set it up the same way their newsletter data gets sent which shows up from the same address, but has the name "J-Novel Club" attached to it.

            NodeBB docs say there's a "From Name" config option next to the "Email Address" option in the admin control panel.
