No email notifications when backups complete

However, even with the reverted values, email notice on backup complete still gets sent.
Hi pumpichank,
Welcome to the community!
Thanks for the feedback and for letting us know that you've encountered a weird behavior with the e-mail alerts after the update. Could you confirm if all email/s saved were cleared prior adding a new one or re-entering your e-mail address.
Kind regards,

Okay, after further testing, what happens is that the From field in the Advanced Options always gets reset to the first email address in the Alert Contacts list.
Hi pumpichank,
Not sure if this is an issue. If you want to add or delete an existing email contact, there is a minus (-) and plus (+) sign right next to Alert Contacts field under the settings page. If you will select the secondary email and configure its email settings, you need to change the email account provider to "Custom" and the rest of the fields will be empty.
Kind regards,

I think the issue is that I'd like to set the From field to something that is more easily filtered. E.g. 'readynas@example.com'. This isn't possible because the From always gets reset to the first alert email address.
Done!
