From the developer
Manny Rodrigues's own description of WPFrom Email, lightly tidied.
Introducing WPFrom Email, a free WordPress Plugin aimed at helping you quickly and easily update the default WordPress sender FROM Name and Email Address.
To increase brand authenticity and create name recognition among your visitors it is recommended update how WordPress sends out emails to your subscribers. Leaving the WordPress email sending settings in their default state may even result in email delivery issues. This is because the default wordpress@ emails usually trigger Internet Service Providers and end user email spam filters.
Using this plugin you can also disable the admin email notification upon New User Registration (only tested against Gravity Forms User Registration Addon). This disables two email notifications. First the user notification email which the user receives upon registration with a link to set their password. Secondly, the admin notification email which the site admin receives upon new user registration: “New User Registration”. You won’t be able to use the option to email the new user their auto-generated password since that email is now disabled. Rather, you will have to create a Gravity Forms notification within your form to send the user the password setup email.
Toggle WordPress AutoUpdate Email Notifications for the WordPress Core, Plugins or Themes. Or choose to have email notifications sent only if there was an error.
