Suggestion: Honor From Name on individual wp_mail calls

    Thank you for this plugin! It’s going to solve a big performance problem if I can work around this one issue. I want to use it for a custom Contact Us form. The person filling out the form provides their own name and email address. Here are the mail headers that I send to wp_mail:

    From: $NAME_FROM_CONTACT_FORM <[email protected]>
    Reply-To: $NAME_FROM_CONTACT_FORM <$EMAIL_FROM_CONTACT_FORM>
    Return-path: [email protected]

    The headers allow the recipient to see the name of the person who submitted the form in their email Inbox.

    SMTP Mailing Queue overrides the From Name and From Email with whatever is in the Settings, even if I leave those fields blank in the SMTP Mailing Queue Settings. I recommend honoring the From: header, or at least honoring the From Name included in the call to wp_mail.

    If there is another workaround to let me do this, I’m listening!

    Thanks in advance.
