Hi All,

I would like to know the main difference between Logon “Email” and Sender “From” of “Send SMTP Mail Message” activity Property Panel.

Do I need to mention sender mail address in both the fields or just any one is enough ?

Please clear my doubt.

Thanks in Advance:-)

Hi UiPath Users .

  • Email - The email account used to send the message.

  • Sender Name - The display name of the sender.
    if email and sender are same you can just pass in one of in logon section

Happy Automation …!!!
