Sending E-mail Requests

   We have been forced to add rules to our anti spam filters not to allow e-mails to come into our organization from and external source with the sender being from our domain. Example I am fred and my E-mail is fred@xyz.com in intervals I setup a task for someone but the e-mail is blocked by out spam filter because it sees it coming from fred@xyz.com from an external source.
   Any way to have Intervals send the e-mail with a from address of admin@intervalsxyz.com or something like this?

   You can't change that (although please request it using the 'feature request?' link in intervals), but intervals does set the correct headers so the emails shouldn't be being caught by your spam filter.
   
   With your example, the headers sent would include:
   From: "Fred" <fred@xyz.com>
   X-Sender: "Intervals" <updates@myintervals.com>
   Sender: "Intervals" <updates@myintervals.com>
   
   Where a "Sender" header is specified, your spam filters should be looking at that to identify the source of the email, not the "From" header, which is just a human-readable label.
   
   Intervals also has domain keys which can be used to verify the email:
