    I can’t thank you enough for the great support.

    One more question. After signing up for an account the email came from WORDPRESS. How do we change that to come from another name of our choice?

    Hi,
    Thank you for appreciating us.
    We have used this plugin to change the name form the emails that are sent from wordpress. Check it out:
    http://wordpress.org/plugins/configure-smtp/
    It also supports sending emails trough a smtp server

    Thanks once again for such great support. I tried the plugin but couldn’t get it to work for me but I did find another plugin that didn’t need any SMTP hosting details that I thought I’d share with you.

    None of these worked for me. I added this snippet to the functions.php and it worked (without plugins):

    /* enter the full email address you want displayed */
    function xyz_filter_wp_mail_from($email){
    return “name@yoursite.com”;
    }
    add_filter(“wp_mail_from”, “xyz_filter_wp_mail_from”);

    /* enter the full name you want displayed alongside the email address */
    function xyz_filter_wp_mail_from_name($from_name){
    return “Name”;
    }
    add_filter(“wp_mail_from_name”, “xyz_filter_wp_mail_from_name”);
