    Registeration Email From field shows "WordPress"

    When a user register and receive his username and password, the email "From" field is Wordpress instead of the site name.

    I manage to change wordpress@sitename.com to something like admin@sitename.com (or whatever email address I wanna use) using SB Welcome Email Editor plugin by changing the email address in From Email Address field.

    What about change the sender name "Wordpress" to my website name or my name? Because even I managed to change the sender email address, but I still can't change the sender name. It keeps showing Wordpress.

    Afew lines higher.
    Solution:
    Edit /wp-includes/pluggable.php
    Look for line 252 and change 'wordpress' to whatever you want but keep it in ' '.

    No, don't touch the wordpress core files. Everytime you have to upgrade WP, it'll blow your change away. I recommend using a simple plugin instead.
