    Hi,
    I don’t understand when wordpress send an email to report user modifications the sender address is wordpress@mydomain.ext where mydomain.ext is the domain of the website instead of the ‘admin_email’ (located in sql db). If it’s the expected behavior, is there a solution to replace this email : for example no_reply@.. or something else ? I did’nt notice that before.
    Best Regards,

    That is the “standard” behaviour, so you’re not seeing something out of the ordinary.

    There are some plugins that can change the email sender. It’s a pretty easy thing to do so a plugin for that is very light-weight. As an example… https://wordpress.org/plugins/cb-change-mail-sender/

    Hello,
    Thank you very much, so I have installed [CB Mail Sender] Plug-in. It works fine however it is not verified for the last wordpress 5.2.2 (but for a close release). I have used a working email adresse instead og no_reply@ to avoid spam detection as explained in some websites.
    Best Regards
