> I tried to change the default userid by providing msg.from [image] But in the email I received, it's a different email address. The from became: [michael@pstpools.com](mailto:michael@pstpools.com) But X-Google-Original-From: has the correct from email address. I need the from to be the same as the one I've provided in the msg.from which is [nodered@daddybug.com](mailto:nodered@daddybug.com)
