Change Sender Name and Email Address WordPress

I wonder if anyone can help me with sending WordPress email notifications from a different email address (from a domain I own).

Because of the email filtering that has been set up in my organisation all the emails that get sent from my WordPress site get filtered before they can be delivered.

I was able to use the following code in my theme functions.php on a previous website but this doesn’t seem to work my WP 5.5 website don’t know if something has changed.

// Function to change email address
 
function wpb_sender_email( $original_email_address ) {
    return '[email protected]';
}
 
// Function to change sender name
function wpb_sender_name( $original_email_from ) {
    return 'Tim Smith';
}
 
// Hooking up our functions to WordPress filters 
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', 'wpb_sender_email' );
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from_name', 'wpb_sender_name' );

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank
