Describe the bug emails are sent using the username value instead of sender value

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

configure email service
for this example username is AAA@AAA.com and sender is BBB@BBB.com
trigger an email event (test email, boot up, back up job complete, etc...)
view the email on recipient end
The email received is sent from AAA@AAA.com which is the login username and not the configured sender value.

Expected behavior email should be sent using the "sender" field in this example the email should be sent from BBB@BBB.com

Instead I see the emails coming in with the "username" value.

Additional context In my case I use a postmaster username to login to my email service and specify a sender email for sent emails.
