    Solved Sender name changed?

    Post by Caroline February 19th 2014, 3:35 pm

    Hello,

    Since yesterday the senders name in e-mails is changed:

    If I receive a PM normally I get a notice in my e-mail with the name of the forum, but now it says the name of the
    person who send the PM.

    Do more people have this problem? I get complains from members because there e-mail filter doesn't work for the personal names.

    Thank you,

    Caroline

    Here a printscreen of my mailbox (so not on the board, but e-mail):

    Sender name changed? PS-mail

    First line (marked) blue says 'er is een nieuwe privébericht' (what means 'you have a new private message').
    Normally the sender was the name of my forum, so 'PSP Dreamland', but now it says the name of the person who send me a private message (in this case 'Silvia') instead of the name of my forum.

    As you can see in the second line, I get a message from the post from you, sender 'The Forum of the forums' so that is correct the name of the forum/board. 

    It has suddenly changed, because before the sender of notifications on my board was always 'PSP Dreamland' and now it says the name of the person who send a PM instead of the name of the board.


    Hope you understand.

    Kind regards

    This has been asked in the staff area, too.

    Edit:  Yes, it has been changed.  The username will appear instead of the name of the forum.
