   tag [admin_email] and add my own or if that needs to stay and add the email behind
   it. is there any instructions on how exactly to set it up?

 * [@charmer83](https://wordpress.org/support/users/charmer83/),
 * **From Email Address** can be [admin_email] or any valid email address (with 
   no brackets – i.e. [you@yourdomain.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/need-help-144/you@yourdomain.com?output_format=md)).
   It should be a real email address on your WP site’s domain to avoid deliverability
   issues (aka spam filters).
 * The brackets just indicate a merge field where the value is replaced dynamically
   when the email is sent.

 * thank you Nick… would that be the same for all the other fields. do you remove
   the brackets?
