      Summary

      The from name in the reporter email shows Anonymous user when the user has uppercase letter in the username.

      Steps to reproduce

      • Create Service Desk
      • Create admin user with uppercase letters in username (ex. "adminAdchSupport") and assigned Service Desk Team role
      • Login in as adminAdchSupport and create a SD request

      Expected Results

      • The from name in the email should be the reporters full name:
        FromName='Jason Worley (JIRA)'

      Actual Results

      • The from name in the email shows Anonymous (JIRA)
        FromName='Anonymous (JIRA)'

      Workaround

      • Rename the reporter to have all lowercase letters. (from example: "adminAdchSupport" to "adminadchsupport"). Now when the reporter creates an SD request the from field is correctly populated with the full name:
