From email address says wordpress@brewstavern.com

[IanErickson]

When people subscribe to the newsletter, the email is generated to the website administrator and the From email address says wordpress@brewstavern.com instead of newsletter@brewstavern.com. I have a dedicated server and do not use SMTP. I just use the WordPress and Server email functionality.

I noticed that when I signed up for this forum, the email came from wordpress@thenewsletterplugin.com instead of Stefano@thenewsletterplugin.com.

How do I make the from email address appear correctly?

Thanks,
Ian Erickson

Did you set the from address on main newsletter configuration?

Hello Stefano, Thanks for the response, but no, I did not, it was set to newsletter@brewstavern.com

When the New Subscriber notification email arrives it says from WordPress <wordpress@brewstavern.com>
I would prefer for it say from Brews Tavern Website <newsletter@brewstavern.com>

I do not use the SMTP. Should I turn on SMTP and work through the process of gettng SMTP settings? Does that have anything to do with this?

Thanks in advance! Ian

Since, then I added the SMTP settings and that did not correct the Sender or email address displaying on the subscription emails. So, it must be something else. Thanks for any ideas on how to solve this.

Notification to the subscriber or to the blog administrator?

The notification to the blog administrator.

So it cannot be changed it is sent by wordpress which set that address. To change the sender address of email sent by wordpress you can install a plugin like Mailer.
