Display email name alongside address when addressing emails

Right now when you address and email, Monday only shows the address, e.g. “dm1234@gmail.com” when addressing emails. This can lead to confusion when selecting from very similar, or a large pool of recipients. Nearly all other email clients support the “name ” standard… can Monday show that, too? E.g. if the table has the data, show “Dolly Madison dm1234@gmail.com” where applicable.

Hi Ian,

Welcome to the community!

You could mirror the Email of the Contact field to another column and after adding the contact’s name as text associated with the email address, you can achieve a similar format.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Harsh

A good workaround is to use a formula column to concatenate the contact’s name and email into a single field. Something like CONCAT({Name}, " <", {Email}, “>”) should format it as Dolly Madison dm1234@gmail.com. This way, you can reference it easily without confusion. If Monday.com improves this natively in the future, that would be ideal, but for now, this should work well for your use case.
