Is there a place to set the "Send From" email address (and name)?  Places like
gmail would populate/override this for you automatically but sending from smtp2go.com emails are sent from "sysop@bbs.nrbbs.net" when one may prefer to have "warpslide@nrbbs.net" as the sending address (in case someone wants a reply) or perhaps "noreply@nrbbs.net" if they didn't.

Subject: E-mail validation code for Northern Realms

Enter the following code when prompted by the BBS to validate e-mail:

It's also worth noting that smtp2go & sendgrid require a custom domain name
to be able to work.  It seems like AOL email still allows SMTP and may actually work if we were able to set the "From" email address to the account name:
