Hi Friends,
I tracked down another bug relating to the forum 'From' name and wp_mail_from_name filter.
PROBLEM:
From Name configured in forum appears on outgoing emails from WordPress even though emails were not sent by forum.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Configure forum From Name as 'foo'
2. Register as a new user on the WP site
3. Observe that email originates from 'foo'
RECOMMENDED FIX:
Enable wp_mail_from_name action only during emails that originate from forum. For an implementation reference, see how the s2member plugin calls add_action('wp_mail_from_name') and remove_action() before and after sending its emails.

we will have to research this... in 4.5.x, we explicitly limited it to forum emails as you suggest... so its possible we broke that in 5.0 so will look into...

Guys...I have this problem too.
I use a plugin called Newsletter Pro to send emails out to about 180 members of our group, and I noticed that the "From:" on those emails was 'forum', not 'newsletter' as I had set in the Newsletter Pro config.
I changed the forum "From Name" to 'wtf', and tested my newsletter...and its "From:" was now 'wtf'.
So, I have confirmed the above bug. This was not an issue for me in 4.5.

In help popup that is shown on the Options - Email Settings it says.
Note: These settings, once made, are global in that they will be used by WordPress for non-forum emails as well.
So it appears to be setup to work that way right now.

just a really old help message.... its how it worked many years ago... in 4.4.something we changed it to only be on emails from the forum... it seems we lost that somewhere in the 5.0 work...
