When I invite someone to a topic, I expect the notification email to be from me or the forum system user. This appears to not be happening now. The email is sent from the topic OP author.
AI-generated summary
A discussion is ongoing about the sender of invite notification emails in Discourse. tobiaseigen reports that the email is sent from the topic OP author, rather than the inviter or forum system user. tgxworld was unable to reproduce the issue, but tobiaseigen provided screenshots to demonstrate the problem. The issue is that the email’s “from” line displays the OP author’s name, while the post correctly indicates the inviter. tgxworld notes that the invitation email should be sent from the notification email address set in site settings. tobiaseigen points out an admin setting related to this issue, but argues that the sender’s name should be the inviter’s, not the OP author’s, to avoid confusion and incorrect address book entries.
hmmm I wasn’t able to reproduce this on try.discourse.org

thanks for trying to reproduce it! I definitely get it - just tried it again now. See screenshots below - this is the notification I got when sharing posts on my site (example one, example two). In both cases the name in the email from line is the author of the OP. Inside the post it correctly indicates me as the person doing the sharing.
The invitation email should be sent from the notification email address set in your site settings. I’m curious as to why those two senders are different though.
There is an admin setting for this:
But I would not expect the full name in this case to be the OP. I would expect it to be the full name of the inviter!
This generally has caused some confusion in my communy though, since in many email clients this name and email address combo will then automatically be added to the address book.
