Hi all,

When email notifications are sent from our bbPress deployment, the ‘From’ address is being set to ‘wordpress@[domain]’. Looking into the WordPress core code (v3.4.2) in pluggable.php, this is done on line 336 when no ‘From’ header is passed in to the wp_mail() function. We’ve reviewed the bbPress configuration and can’t find anywhere that this can be set, have we missed a setting somewhere?

Note our site is using WordPress 3.4.2 Multisite with bbPress 2.1.2.

I believe bbPress uses wp_mail() and does not explicitly set a “from”, so wordpress@domain.com is used by default.
