Everything is Working Fine. But In the Confirmation Email, The Name (which is usually above the Subject) shows "Wordpress". I am making Website for Hospital. It looks Unprofessional. Is there a Way to show the Actual Name of the Company?

That has to do with wordpress configuration, you can use a plugin like this one https://es.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-simple-mail-sender/

Hi Hong, do you have running email function on your hosting? Can you try for example to reset password? Do you get that email?

Best regards,
Nikola

running email function on your hosting? Yes as without the setting it send out the email. but once we put in the Some Name or any other it will not send the email

Can you try for example to reset password? which password you refer to
