Outgoing Email Names
This is a BETA
What it does?
Allows you to change the "from" email address for sent messages within different parts of your vBulletin. example: when sending an email saying a member has received a new PM, you could change it to say 'from yourForum <email>'. another example is for a welcome email to your members <email>
Why would I use this?
I haven't come up with all the reasons yet but here's what I have:
1. improves the aesthetics of the email address people see as a return address.
2. helps you create better spam filters that can reject based on from address (ie. anybody that sent an email back to email could have their email canned by a filter, cause most likely they are a spammer.)
downsides?
due to my lack of skills I have a feeling this adds several queries to the sending of emails, so, if you have a very large site.. it may cause problems until I can get some suggestions how to improve efficiency
How to use?
1. Download Product
2. install product
3. go to vBulletin options and start setting stuff!
Geez I like it soo much, where do I click install :banana:
