I have a situation where our forms' notifications are coming through with a different email and name than what is set in the Notification To User section of the form.
For example, the form lists:
From Name: My Name
From Email: me@myemail.com
But the email comes from accountname#@boxXXX.bluehost.com
Any thoughts on how to override this?
Please try installing an SMTP plugin and configuring that. We normally recommend trying one of these:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cimy-swift-smtp/
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/configure-smtp/
The email headers are being set by your host and their mail function. You can override that by installing an SMTP plugin and using a server you choose.

I found a solution for this, put this piece of code in the functions.php of your theme:
[php]
add_filter('wp_mail_from', 'new_mail_from');
add_filter('wp_mail_from_name', 'new_mail_from_name');
function new_mail_from($old) {
return 'youremail@yourwebsite.com';
}
function new_mail_from_name($old) {
return 'Your Site';
}Thanks for pointing that out. I did not know about those WordPress filters.
