What is the custom FROM name feature?

Not Rated 0 votes Rate this answer

By default, net send messages show the sender's computer name. The registered version of Net Send Lite lets you override this with your login username or any custom name you choose. This means recipients see a friendly name (like "John Smith" or "IT Help Desk") instead of a cryptic machine identifier like "PC-A4F291".
