Hi Søs,

You cannot put {Mail} in the From Email box - it only takes an email address.

If you want to use a Dynamic From Email use the box on the Advanced tab and enter Mail - with no quotes or brackets.

The same applies to the From Name but that will just set the From Name to {Navn}

Note: I strongly recommend that you do *not* use the Dynamic From Email element in your Email Setups. Using this often results in your emails being marked as spam and dropped into a spam filter. Instead use the static From Email with an address that matches the site domain name and use Dynamic ReplyTo Email for the user email. The result is the same but with a much better chance of good delivery.
