Email Settings

Configure the sender name and email address used on all outgoing email from Pubvana.

TL;DR

Go to Admin → Settings → Email. Set the From Name and From Email that appear as the sender on contact form responses and admin notifications. SMTP transport is configured separately in .env or app/Config/Email.php.

Details

From Name

The display name that appears in the "From" field of outgoing email. For example, if you set this to Acme Blog, recipients will see Acme Blog <hello@acme.com> in their email client.

From Email

The email address used as the sender for all outgoing mail. This address:

  • Receives contact form submissions (the contact form sends its contents to this address).
  • Appears as the reply-to address on notification emails.

Use an address you control and that is authorised to send email from your domain to avoid spam filtering issues.

SMTP / Transport Configuration

The From Name and From Email settings only control the sender identity. The underlying mail transport (how email is actually sent) is configured separately:

Option 1: .env file

email.SMTPHost     = smtp.example.com
email.SMTPUser     = user@example.com
email.SMTPPass     = yourpassword
email.SMTPPort     = 587
email.SMTPCrypto   = tls
email.protocol     = smtp

Option 2: app/Config/Email.php

Edit the $SMTPHost, $SMTPUser, $SMTPPass, $SMTPPort, and $protocol properties directly in the config class.

Emails Sent by Pubvana

The following system events send email using these settings:

Event Recipient Description
Contact form submitted From Email address A copy of the visitor's contact message
Update available From Email address Admin notification when a new Pubvana version is detected (if enabled)
Password reset The user Shield's built-in forgot-password flow
Email verification The user Shield's built-in email verification (if enabled)

Email Provider

New in 2.3.6 — Plugins can register as the email delivery handler for the entire site.

When a plugin declaring "core" email capability is active, an Email Provider dropdown appears at the top of Admin → Settings → Email.

Option Behaviour
Core (default) Pubvana sends email via PHP mailer using the SMTP settings on this page
(Plugin name) The selected plugin handles all outbound email delivery

Switching providers takes effect immediately — no restart required. If the active plugin returns false (e.g. it is not yet configured), Pubvana falls through to the core mailer automatically.
