You should simply just change the notification e-mail address in the /config/umbracoSettins.config file to the desired address and then it should work, if I understand what you're asking correctly :)
Have you checked the log to see if some error is thrown? I've had serious issues setting up valid e-mails since there are some pretty harsh spam-filters around. So sometimes even though it was a legal company address the main e-mail could not be used as a sender. Have you tried changing it to your own e-mail? But you should of course enter a valid e-mail address...just entering a company name won't send anything.
The .Net SMTP email client expects the from address to be a valid email address, if it isn't, it won't send. Depending on how the underlying code works, it might be possible to set the email address to "Company Name [email protected]" and that would set the friendly name. If that still doesn't work, you'll need to look through the SMTP logs for your server. Are you using the built in server virtual SMTP server, or are you using an external mail server? If you're using the built in one, you can open the logs in Notepad and look for your email to see if it's been sent.
Sender Email
Is it possible to change the Sender Email address in the work flow from something like [email protected] to Company Name ?
Looks like sender is not receiving any mail if subject doesnot have valid email address or at least @something.com.
Can this be changed ?

Hi Fuji
Also make sure you try out the thing Tim suggests in this post http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-pro/contour/11821-Email-not-being-sent#comment43768

Thanks Yan,
What if i insert a valid email address and also want to display the Company Name ? Is this possible instead of displaying the [email protected] ?
But perhaps the e-mail address they want displayed is not allowed for some weird reason.
Check out the stuff in the above post. Also make sure to check that you SMTP settings are correct :)
