# Notification email from Author

 * Under the Additional Email Fields heading, when you check the box for ‘Set “From”
   Name & Email, CC, BCC”, can you take the Author Display Name: [display_name] 
   shortcode and have it set to be the “From” name on the notification email instead
   of the site name or admin name? Also, can you set the “From” email to use the
   Author User Email: [user_email] shortcode as well?
 * What I’m trying to do is whenever a post/page is submitted by **any** author 
   as Pending Review, the notification email that is sent will have the From Name
   and Email be from the author that is submitting the post/page for review, and
   NOT from the site or site admin. Is there another way to achieve this?

 * Hi [@webmasterpcsb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webmasterpcsb/),
    Thanks
   for your message.
 * This most likely will result in either emails failing to be sent or an increase
   in the amount of SPAM false positives. The reason for this is that email that
   is being sent from your domain should be sent from your domain or a domain that
   has been authorised to send email on your domains behalf. If this isn’t the case,
   these two issues can occur.
 * Hope this helps.
 * Thanks,
    Jack
