Right now when a user has their email reset, the notification is sent from WordPress (and the actual email address is [email protected]).

Try as I may, I cannot figure out how to hack this to change the from name to be our blog name. Any ideas?

I was able to get around this same problem with the registration emails using the Register Plus plugin, which works great. It let us set a custom from name and email. But it doesn’t affect lost password emails, unfortunately.

Any help would be greatly (and desperately) appreciated. Even telling me which .php file I can hack to change the default from name would be excellent.

Here’s five possibilites. Not sure which will play best with Register Plus.

Interesting wp-hackers discussion: https://lists.automattic.com/pipermail/wp-hackers/2010-February/030513.html

If you do employee one of those plugins could you reply back here so I can tag this thread with that plugins tag. Thanks.

Thanks for the advice MichaelH! I went the hack route and followed instructions on https://core.trac.www.ads-software.com/ticket/5007 which identified wp-includes/pluggable.php as the file that contains the info on from name and address. Two slight changes and it now comes from our name and email. Unfortunately it will get reset on the next upgrade, but it is an easy fix.

-Copy the code below
-Change yourname and [email protected] in the code like you want
-Save as <any_name>.php
-Upload to your server in /wp-content/plugins/
-Activate the plugin
– Done! You never will send email with sender wordpress@
(Works fine in WP 2.9.2)

Is there a way to customize message which is sent, not only email address?
