Mail "from name" in config instead of fixed 'Rallly'

[bmaster001]

Outgoing mails are always from the fixed name 'Rallly', while the email address is of course customizable in the configfile. Is there a reason that the name in not a configurable setting?

It's not documented but you can modify the from name by setting NOREPLY_EMAIL to Sender Name sender@server.com. I'll create an issue to include this information in the configuration options.

Ugh, looks like I'm doing something wrong because the name doesn't change in the mails I receive.
I've tried things like
NOREPLY_EMAIL="sender name email@server.com"
or
NOREPLY_EMAIL="sender name <email@server.com>"
Maybe there's another syntax?

[lukevella]

Looks like I misspoke. The sender name cannot be configured at the moment.

It's a sensible request to be able to change it. That said, this is very low priority so can't say when I will have time to work on this. I'll adjust the issue accordingly.

It can be now, thanks to #1023, so this discussion can be closed.
