Admin Email As From Address

Use the admin email address set in Settings->General as the email address from which WordPress sends email.

The plugin has two easy settings and programmer hook support to set as new From email address and a From name. It also should work perfectly fine with Multisite installations.

Notes

Since version 1.1 you may also overrule this plugin by using the following filters:

• aeafa_mail_from, similar to wp_mail_from
• aeafa_mail_from_name, similar to wp_mail_from_name

These work exactly the same as their core WordPress counterparts and allows you to implement your own mail_from and mail_from_name
