Self-hosted: White label sender e-mail

[timomayer]

In a self-hosted, "Platform plan" environment it should be easily possible to change sender e-mail address of all mails going out. Thisd might not be the case and all mails are sent out from "cal.com" which is confusing on a white label plattform where you (before the emails) never get in "touch" with the name "cal.com"

@timomayer have you tried changing EMAIL_FROM key in .env file and also update SENDGRID_EMAIL in packages/prisma/.env ?

[timomayer]

We tried changing the env var, but not the sendgrid one because we thought that's not relevant for self hosted environments?

[PeerRich]

in order to send emails with sendgrid, you need to change those too

@PeerRich @Udit-takkar thanks for your feedback!

So what we have:

• self hosted instance of cal.com on platform plan.

What we want:

• send cal.com e-mails with a specific sender-adress and name ([email protected])
• We want to use our own SMTP send provider (not sendgrid). Is this currently possible and what has to be changed to achieve it? Thanks for your help!

has anyone found a solution? I am having the same issue...

[linjoe2]

adding the following to my .env file made the change:

SENDGRID_EMAIL= NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDGRID_SENDER_NAME=

@linjoe2 I am using an SMTP server for sending mails, the settings don't work there. I still get "Cal.com" as Sender name.

Seems like EMAIL_FROM_NAME= in .env changes sender name (which is set to "Cal.com" if variable is not defined), while EMAIL_FROM= changes the email address only.
