These settings only affect the From header set in sent emails. They do not affect other things, such as the SMTP username used to authenticate, and they may be different from the SMTP username. This change clarifies the role of these settings, in order to prevent confusion.

This change also documents how to set a name alongside an email address in the From header of these emails.

The suggested changes are fine by me, they are an improvement to the existing documentation, and I like the conciseness. Thank you for reviewing this.

I accepted the changes, deleted a duplicate sentence, squashed the changes into a new commit, and pushed to this pull request.
