# Customizing Email Address Fields

> Set `From`, `Reply-To`, `CC`, and `BCC` addresses per notification or through provider defaults.

You can set email address fields globally in provider integration settings or per notification in email channel settings.
`Reply-To`, `CC`, and `BCC` are configured per notification in channel settings.

If you're sending with [inline content](/platform/content/elemental/elemental-overview) or need to set these fields programmatically at send time, you can use `message.channels.email.override` in the Send request instead. See [Email Channel Overrides](/external-integrations/email/intro-to-email#available-channel-override-fields) for the full field reference.

## Setting the 'From' Name and Email Address

You can set the 'From' name and email address for email notifications in two ways:

1. The default provider integration settings
2. On a per-channel basis using the email channel settings.

<Note>
  Channel settings always override provider defaults for the notification and channel where they are set.
</Note>

## Setting Default Address Fields in the Integration Settings

By default, email notifications use the `from` name and `email` address set in your provider integration settings.

Some providers expose both `From Email Address` and `From Name` fields.

If your provider integration settings do not include a Sender Name field, use `Sender Name <example@youremailprovider.com>` in the `from` value.

### Overriding the Default From Name and Email Via Channel Settings

To override provider defaults for one notification, open [channel settings](/platform/sending/channel-settings) and set a channel-level `from` value.

</Frame>

In channel settings, use the email configuration fields to set the `From` address.

Use the `Sender Name <example@youremailprovider.com>` format to define a name.

## Setting the 'Reply To', 'CC' and 'BCC' Addresses

To set the `Reply To`, `CC` and `BCC` addresses, open the email channel settings and add your email addresses into the corresponding fields.

<Info>
  You can use [variables](/platform/content/variables/inserting-variables) to dynamically set any of these email addresses.
