    Hi! I just discovered your plugin, and I have to say it works great. Love the fact that I don’t have to enter a username and password, unlike the other SMTP plugins.

    Question: I have a Google Apps for Business account, with my own domain name. Let’s say my mailbox hosted there is [email protected], and this mailbox also has an alias attached to it, [email protected].

    I’ve set up the Gmail API using this mailbox ([email protected]) – however, I want Postman SMTP to send its emails using [email protected] as the FROM address, which I have added to the Message tab of Postman’s settings.

    But when I send a test email using this configuration, Google seems to change the FROM address back to [email protected] – and it loses the friendly “Name” I’d given it in the Name field too. The email log shows that your plugin is using [email protected] in the From field it sends to Google, which means it must be Google that is changing this.

    Is there any way, that you know of, to configure the Gmail API – or your plugin – to allow my alias address to be used when it is given in the FROM field? Is this anything that you, or I, have control over?
