Question
Plesk email notifications sent to clients contain the personal email of the Administrator. How to change the 'From' field to hide this personal email address?
Answer
Warning: The solution below works only if Postfix/Qmail is installed on the server and is not relevant for MSMTP (relay only)
Plesk administrator can specify a custom email address to be used as a mail relay. The email address will be used as the sender address for all Plesk email notifications enabled in the Tools & Settings > Notifications menu.
To adjust the settings, perform the following:
-
Edit the Plesk panel.ini file by adding the lines below there:
[notification]
senderAddress=<custom email address>For example:
Note: Some notifications such as Additional Administrators activation email, etc. are sent from the "System" with the address: no-reply@<full-server-hostname>
. To change this "System" sender email address set the required full hostname under Tools & Settings > Server Settings > Full hostname.
