Description

The wp_mail_from filter modifies the "from email address" used in an email sent using the wp_mail function. When used together with the 'wp_mail_from_name' filter, it creates a from address like "Name <[email protected]>". The filter should return an email address.

Parameters

$from_email

(string) (required) The "from" email address

Default: None

Examples

add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', 'custom_wp_mail_from' );
function custom_wp_mail_from( $original_email_address ) {
	//Make sure the email is from the same domain 
	//as your website to avoid being marked as spam.
	return '[email protected]';
}

It is not necessary to call another method if you can use anonymous functions (PHP 5.3.0+):

add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', function( $email ) {
	return '[email protected]';
} );

Notes

• To avoid your email being marked as spam, it is highly recommended that your "from" domain match your website.
• Some hosts may require that your "from" address be a legitimate address.
• If you apply your filter using an anonymous function, you cannot remove it using remove_filter().
