How do I change the email "FROM" address?

AI-generated summary

Richie is trying to change the “FROM” email address on emails sent by his Discourse forum from forums@example.com to info@example.com. Canapin suggested checking the notification email setting, but Richie found that it contains his personal email address. Richie provided screenshots of the emails he wants to change, including digest emails and lost password notifications.

After further discussion, Canapin and pfaffman confirmed that the notification email setting should be used for this purpose. However, Richie is still unsure if he has a custom setup in place, possibly through Sendgrid, that is overriding this setting.

Emails sent by my discourse are currently being sent “from”: forums@example.com

I need to change this to info@example.com

I’ve been all over the admin panel and app.yml but can’t seem to find this setting anywhere? :thinking:

notification email setting?

No, that currently contains my personal email address:

It’s this email address I need to change, on the digest emails that are sent out, lost passwords, etc:

Now I’m wondering if I have some weird kinda email setup in place from a few years ago which I can’t now remember :grimacing:

Weird. I don’t know much about email stuff, but the emails that my multiple Discourse forums send use the notification email address I set.

Ok, I’ll give it a try - again, can’t help wondering if I have something odd in place.

Thanks!

Notification email is what discourse puts in the from line. If you have something else, then my guess is that your MTA is rewriting the from line.

My screen shots above seem to show that not being the case? :thinking:

But yes, I too can’t help thinking I set up something funky on sendgrid years ago, and have since forgotten :grimacing:
