Question

Username Not Displaying on Emails


Forum|alt.badge.img+2

When I initiate a new signing, my username isn’t displayed on the email.  It’s supposed to say “Mary Golding via DocuSign” but just displays the docusign email address.  If I resend the same envelope, void, correct or delete it, the username is displayed correctly.  See the email inbox screenshot.  

 

I’ve reached out to tech support multiple times and they have no resolution.

Hello, @Mary.Golding 

 

You're welcome to the Docusign Community!

 

What about the notification email sent to the signers? What's shows up in the FROM: field in the email?

 

If responding me, use @ plus my name so I'll be not.

 

Best, 

Alexandre

This behavior is the same for all of my recipients.  My testing is from mary.golding@akgre.com (company) to my personal mary@golding.com  so they are different but just have the same name.

@Alexandre.Augusto 

If I expand the email header it does appear correct coming from Mary Golding but you have to open and expand the header.  See…

Hello, @Mary.Golding 

 

I get it.

 

The solution for that is described in this article:

If you decide to follow the articles instructions then you will need open a Support case to get help:

I hope that helps!

 

Best,

Alexandre

@Alexandre.Augusto  Thank you. 

 

I’ve been down this road numerous times with tech support always defaulting to this article. My account is a generic realtor account. There is no custom email domain or a custom email address.  It’s not applicable.  Also, in the admin interface there isn’t even a “features” option on my account to try and create a subdomain. 

 

See. There’s no custom domain

 

When I first opened the account it worked and was showing the default behavior but now it doesn’t on the initial envelope. 

Also, this is a fairly new account for me and is on DSE_NA4.  My old account that was affiliated with another company used to be on DSE_NA2 and had no issues.  Not sure if that has any relevance between the systems.

Also, my husband just created an entirely new DocuSign account using a generic gmail address that has never been on the DocuSign platform to help test it for me.  It’s exhibiting the exact same behavior.  The initial envelope doesn’t show the user account name as entered in the settings.  This has be something DocuSign would put on their radar?   The default behavior isn’t working.

@Alexandre.Augusto 

Any luck on this one?  It’s really baffling and my clients keep asking if it’s a valid document since my name isn’t appearing when I start and envelope so it’s really interfering with workflow. 

 

Thank you!!
