Personalized email replies

For providing more personalized customer support you have the option of adding the agent's name to the Reply From address in email replies to the end-user. When this is enabled, the end user's name also appears in the Reply From address and/or signature field in email replies to the agent.

A personalized reply is used when an agent sends a reply to the ticket (whether or not they are the assigned agent). An agent's name is not used for automatic reply notifications. The name used in the personalized email reply is the agent's name in their user profile.

This example shows how email notifications look to end-users if you have not to use personalized email replies.
