Admin email help

  • I searched for this but couldn’t find anything more recent than a year and a half ago, and it didn’t seem to apply to now.

    How can you change the address WP emails from? IE when I get an email saying someone replied to a topic, it comes from the default account on my server, and I’d like to change that if possible.

    Any suggestions?

  • I did what tedroche did, with one exception and then it worked (v2.2 of wordpress):

    in pluggable.php in wp-includes

    function wp_mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers = ”) {
    if( $headers == ” ) {
    $headers = “MIME-Version: 1.0\n” .
    “From: ” . get_settings(‘admin_email’) . “\n” .
    “Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\”” . get_settings(‘blog_charset’) . “\”\n”;
    # was: “From: wordpress@” . preg_replace(‘#^www\.#’, ”, strtolower($_SERVER[‘SERVER_NAME’])) . “\n” .
    /*}<—HEY DELETE THIS LINE!*/

    return @mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
    }

    This thread has been addressed with Andrew Hamilton‘s plugin ‘Mail From’

    Here is the plugin’s homepage:

    Yeah Trent’s method should work just fine, I was actually looking for a solution for this mess. I dont want to reveal too much to anyone.

    Specially, if you are on a shared hosting account, things get messy ??
