SMTP_FROM_NAME isn't working

In the last version of the Docker image the environment variable SMTP_FROM_NAME isn't working.
By taking a look at the source code I was able to identify the issue in the line 388 of src/config.rs
smtp_from_name: String, true, def, "Bitwarden_RS".to_string();
Maybe this should be as line 386 where the definition is
smtp_from: String, true, def, String::new();

So modified line 388 would be like this
smtp_from_name: String, true, def, String::new();

EDIT: I didn't tested the environment: tag in the docker-compose.yml file.

My docker-compose.yml look like this

version: "3"
services:
password:
container_name: password
image: bitwardenrs/server
restart: always
volumes:
- ./password/bw-data/:/data/
env_file: ./password/env

nginx:
image: docker.io/nginx:latest
restart: always
container_name: nginx
ports:
- "80:80"
- "443:443"
volumes:
- ./nginx/etc:/etc/nginx
- ./nginx/certs:/etc/letsencrypt
- ./nginx/certs-data:/data/letsencrypt
- /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock:ro
depends_on:
- password

Thanks for your time! And you've done an amazing work here!
Best regards!

SMTP_FROM and SMTP_FROM_NAME are different config items with distinct purposes. You probably have a config.json that's overriding your env var. Take a look at https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs/wiki/Configuration-overview.
