So for example, my domain is [gofishcarolinas.com](http://gofishcarolinas.com)  
I verified my email on elastic email using this domain, not [discourse.gofishcarolinas.com](http://discourse.gofishcarolinas.com)

Now, in the `app.yml` file, I should change that email to what? [admin@gofishcarolinas.com](mailto:admin@gofishcarolinas.com)? This is for the first registration email.

Thanks.
