 * I have created a google cloud project and all my test mails are being delivered(
   thanks!).
 * The ‘From’ address is correct:
 * I noticed this in each header:
 * Received: from 569669955446 named unknown by gmailapi.google.com with HTTPREST;
 * I would like to replace ‘unknown’ but am not sure if it matters?
 * Thanks in advance

 * Thanks M 🙂
 * I am using the ‘send a test email’ feature from this screen: ([https://drive.google.com/file/d/1E880QZ9welH-a72wIyXbsvK_9QXZ489O/view?usp=sharing](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1E880QZ9welH-a72wIyXbsvK_9QXZ489O/view?usp=sharing))
 * Emails succeed. Here’s the Postman SMTP header from the above screen of the last
   one I sent (anonymised to me and mydomain):
 *     ```wp-block-code
       --Raw message follows--X-Mailer: Postman SMTP 2.9.9 for WordPress (https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-smtp/)MIME-Version: 1.0Content-Type: multipart/alternative;boundary="=_e096d79f82c07b4e7b026b62e25e246b"From: My mail managerTo: me@gmail.comMessage-Id: <4c5d2dce3391fd56ea4f2099397ac138@mydomain>Subject: Postman SMTP Test (mydomain)Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2024 17:16:12 +0000--=_e096d79f82c07b4e7b026b62e25e246bContent-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printableHello!=0D=0DSent by Postman 2.9.9 - https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-s=mtp/=0D=0D--=_e096d79f82c07b4e7b026b62e25e246bContent-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "body--=_e096d79f82c07b4e7b026b62e25e246b--

 * I am examining ther headers from the received test email – that’s where I see
   the same ‘unknown’ message each time:
 * Received: from 569669955446 named unknown by gmailapi.google.com with HTTPREST;
 * Here is the rest of the header of the successfully delivered message

 * Hello [@dev22test](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev22test/)
 * Thank you so much for sharing the information in details, we tried to replicate
   the scenario on our end but were unable to achieve what you are facing 🙁
 * Could you please share a screenshot of the email that is displaying this behavior,
   or perhaps open a support ticket with us for a much smoother debugging of the
   scenario.
 * I look forward to your response & an opportunity to assist you.

 * OK – the problem is in the Post SMTP email headers and I’ve supplied one as an
   example (above) from a standard screen that must be identical for everyone of
   your users – not sure what else you could want but will open a support ticket
   as you request.
 * TIA
