In my mail account in OUTLOOK (loacal) , my email is declared
sender : pierre@pl-arts.com and a name as alias
“Arpille Pierre LARDE Gandi”

That name is what is seeen by the reader in the “from” field.
followed by the equivalent Email.

Is there a possibility with CFMAIL to do the same ?
See attached examples :

Try Sender Name <sender@example.com>

But, sender@example.com (or sender@pl-arts.com) must be a valid Email address at my host ?
How receiver can see : Arpille Pierre LARDE Gandi as the sender (from) ?
Thanks, Pierre.

Hi Pierre, try what @Zackster told you That is a valid email address and should just work.

To be literal put from="Your Alias <pierre@pl-arts.com>" and it will come up as ‘Your Alias’

yup, plus if you have special characters, you need to quote the name

<cfmail from='"spitzer, zac" <zac@example.com>' ...>
