Admin email address as "Name <youremail@address.com>"

[V@no]

I was trying do this way so users would receive emails from admin that shows the name I put, in "From: ", not email address.
yes, it works, but in field "To: " users receive " > " nothing else. instead of that was supposed to be his (user's) email(?)...or mybe admin's email(?).

P.S. I'm using SMTP for sending emails.

This is perhaps simular to my problem.  
But you seem to have solved mine.
How did you get a "from" name instead of an adress?

this way has problem when email sent from admin control panel.
but its better "fix" little bit /includes/email.php:

Find:

Code: [Select]

$config['site_email']
Change it to this:

Code: [Select]

$config['site_name']." <".$config['site_email'].">"

and also, in /admin/email.php
Find:

Code: [Select]

   $site_email->set_to($config['site_email']);
Change to this:

Code: [Select]

   $site_email->set_to($config['site_name'], "<".$config['site_email'].">");
