Plugin sends email using WP ‘default’ address but where is that set?

I just installed a really sweet and simple plugin called Meow Apps Contact Form, which will send me an email from a contact form.

I’ve set up my wordpress installation to use PHP mail to send via exim on the same host. I set myself up as administrator in the user list with my own email address, and put the same email address into the form field under General Settings -> email address.

Those are the only 2 places to set it, right?

I also just checked in the database and I can see my own email in there too:

MariaDB [wordpress]> SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE 'admin_email';
+-----------+-------------+------------------------+----------+
| option_id | option_name | option_value           | autoload |
+-----------+-------------+------------------------+----------+
|         6 | admin_email | [email protected] | yes      |
+-----------+-------------+------------------------+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

All was running fine, especially with the newsletter plugin I was using.

Then I installed this plugin, and it sends emails using an email “[email protected]” although I do not remember setting this anywhere.

I tried another (WP Test Email) and it uses the wordpress email address too! Is this hard-coded, or can I change it?

Thanks
Adam
