When you are sending a email from a lead, is there any way to validate or control who the sender email is programmatically?

Hi Steve,

1. You can try below approaches: 

Use URL hacking to pass from address.Below is the URL that is used in a custom button to send email template from the Opportunity page. You should be able to replace Opportunity.ID with Case.ID.  The last part of the URL selects the template. You'll have to enter the id of your template.
/_ui/core/email/author/EmailAuthor?rtype=003&p3_lkid={!Opportunity.Id}&retURL=%2F{!Opportunity.Id}&p5={!$User.Email}&p24="lee.moreau@company.com&template_id=00XC0000001O7Ck
2. create custom functionality to send an email using VF & apex.
