Is there a way to specify the sending address in an email action? I have multiple email accounts configured on my iPad and when I send a Draft to OneNote, it needs to be sent from a specific email address for OneNote to process it properly. But I don’t see this as a setting in the Drafts action nor in the Drafts email script object.
Unfortunately not. iOS limitation…presumably for security reasons, so apps can’t phish for your email addresses.
Thanks. So should I assume the sender will always be the one specified in Settings -> Mail -> Default Account?
Yes, I think that should be the case…but it’s not behavior specified by Apple, so I don’t know that it’s 100% reliable.
I ran into this too the other day. I was wondering whether the background send option could be modified to allow a ‘plus address’ tag to be added to the standard sending email address.
i.e. Instead of all emails showing as being from:
drafts5@drafts5.agiletortoise.com
It would be:
drafts5+somethingunique@drafts5.agiletortoise.com
As it’s a standard way of sub-addressing emails I would hope that it wouldn’t cause delivery problems.
I don’t know if this would work for Onenote, because it depends on you being able to add an arbitrary ‘sending’ email address, but it would work for my application.
