VPS or Dedicated Hosting - Configure the Default Sender Address

By default, your server’s automated messages will be sent from user@server.com.

To customize your default sender address:

1. Log in to the WHM by going to yourdomain.com/whm in a browser. Replace yourdomain.com with your domain.
2. Once you get to the login page, enter your username and password.
   • Username will be root.
   • Password will be the root password for your server.
3. If you see the Feature Showcase page, scroll to the bottom and click the Exit to WHM button.
4. Once in the WHM, look for the Software section and select MultiPHP INI Editor from the list.
5. On the MultiPHP INI Editor page, navigate to Editor Mode and select a PHP version from the drop-down.
6. In the editor, modify the sendmail_path value.
   For example, if you want your default sender address to be john@example.com, modify the value to be: 

               /usr/sbin/sendmail –t –I –f’john@example.com’

7. Click Save.
