      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:
        2015-02-09 11:52:00.805045500 2015-02-09 11:52:00,804 Sending mailitem To='jworley@atlassian.com' Subject='(DESK-23) dfdfddfd' From='null' FromName='Jason Worley (JIRA)' Cc='null' Bcc='null' ReplyTo='null' InReplyTo='null' MimeType='text/html' Encoding='UTF-8' Multipart='javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart@1c6e67b' MessageId='null' DEBUG anonymous    Mail Queue Service [com.atlassian.mail.outgoing] 250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as C09AF6180FFB
