When a registration email is sent, this email has an email address and a 'from name'.
Where does the 'from name' come from?

The email is in SMTP settings and corresponds with what I see. But the 'from name'...

Without checking, I would assume that the Administrator account for the portal is used. I think/thought that the email in the SMTP setup is there to authenticate the email connection only.
