 * Hi rameesareno,
    How are you sending the mails? I’m using the WP SMTP Plugin 
   to send the email and there you can freely configure the From part of the email.

 * Okay, I found it now.
    Here’s what you need to do: 1. Go to your database, into
   the options table. 2. Look for the option_name _email\_before\_download\_email\
   _from_. 3. Change it’s value to what you want the sender to be, in this format:**
   Name <email@address.com>**
 * This did the trick for me. Will try to create a quick plugin for this.

 * So here is the plugin which allows you to set any sender name and email address
   for the Email Before Download plugin.
