   Wonderful plugin!

   One thing to make it even better: make setting the sender name and email address optional.

   In my default WP install, when people comment, I get email notifications, and those are have the name of the commenter as the sender. I like it that way.

   The functionality in WP Better Emails of setting the sender makes it all come from the same sender, which forced me to comment some lines in the plugin code (add_filter('wp_mail_from_name'... and add_filter('wp_mail_from'...).

   Much better would be to have them as an optional setting in the plugin itself.

   Thanks and great job!

   I agree completely! This plugin is awesome, but I would like to make the "From" email address when a form is submitted & email notification sent to be the email address of the submitter. This plugin is automatically changing it to my own email address, which kind of defeats the purpose.

   Thanks again for the great plugin!

   Hi,

   Thanks for pointing that out. I'll probably make the sender configuration optional in the next version.

   Hi,

   WP Better Emails has been updated. Sender email and name are now optional.

   Enjoy.

   Hi, thanks for considering this feature request!

   I tried the new version, but couldn't make this new functionality work. Looking at the code, I see conditional logic in the filter, but the UI in the Admin area still doesn't allow blank name/email fields and neither there is a checkbox to disable the feature.

   Thanks!

   I've updated the plugin to remove the error message "enter a valid email address" if your email field is empty but you can still leave the email field blank.
   You can update the plugin, the email syntax check is now only applied when email field is filled.

   Cool, I indeed got the error message, but the blank fields were saved this time.

   Thanks again for this great plugin! 5-star rating!
