# Comments to Admin – From email

 * I’ve posted another question about formatting comment notifications to the Admin
   as HTML, but thought it best to separate this other question out into its own
   thread. Hope that’s acceptable to the mods, and if not, feel free to merge these
   two! 🙂
 * Is there any way to have the comments that are emailed to the Admin show the “
   from” address as being the email address entered by the commenter (if they entered
   one) instead of the very generic hostname that currently shows? Is this an issue
   with my host (HostMonster), or is it changeable in WP? (I’m using WP 2.0.4)
 * Thanks!

 * [Otto’s response to me](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/99466?replies=3) in
   another thread is likely the answer to this, so I’m listing it as resolved.
 * That’s the other thread that probably has the answer to this one as well.
 * Thanks!
