 * Hi everyone,
 * When a user registers ad my wordpress site he or she gets an confirmation email.
   On top of that email they see ‘Wordpress wordpress@sitename via webhosting
 * I don’t want that anyone sees that they register ad a wordpress site. Is there
   a way that I can adjust that?
 * Example:
 * ![](https://en-forums.files.wordpress.com/2023/02/schermafbeelding-2023-02-16-

 * We can split this into two things to solve 1) remove the via part after the email
   address and 2) change the email.
 * Part 1
 * To get the “via webhost” part removed, you need update some records at your domain
   name host to prove your website host is authorised to send mail. If you don’t
   do this mail will probably also end up in spam. Speak to your web host or look
   up your hosting’s documentation about setting up (a) SPF record and also see 
   if they support (b) DKIM
 * Part 2
 * To change the notificatiuon email From address, search for a plugin that has 
   good reviews and is well supported, or if you are using a child theme, add the
   follwing snippet to your functions.php, changing the email address in bold to
   your chosen email. Don’t delete the quote marks.
 *     ```wp-block-code
       // Change notification sender address
       function change_notification_email( $wp_mail_from ) {
           return 'yourNewEmail@deklokborgloon.be';
       }
       add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', 'change_notification_email' );
       ```
