setFrom(address)

By default, the outgoing email From field contains the address taken from the From field of the default email account. Use the setFrom(address) method to change the From field value of an outgoing email.

Regardless of the value in the Form field of an outgoing email, the system conducts the sending authorization with the data set in the default email account.

Return:

Type	Description
Void	This method does not return a value.

Example:
