We would like to change the FROM line in emails for Registration Notification Emails. Currently they are FROM a Fliplet address ([system@fliplet.com](mailto:system@fliplet.com))

You cannot change the from email address. Only the from name can be changed if the email is being sent using custom code as mentioned here:

Deb,

We would build the JS something like below. Would this go in the Global JS so it works for Registration, Forgotten Password, ect?

var options = {  
from\_name: “Example Name”,  
headers: {  
“Reply-To”: “[message.reply@example.com](mailto:message.reply@example.com)”  
}  
};  
// Returns a promise  
Fliplet.Communicate.sendEmail(options);

You will not be able to customise this for forgotten password or email verification emails as they are generated by our system internally. The JS API I linked can only be triggered based on custom code like a form submit for example.
