Hi there,

[Silverstripe 3.1.2]

When you procede to a password recovery, in "framework/security/member.php" it says

$from = '';  // setting a blank from address uses the site's default administrator email

Then in "framework/mail/Email.php" it says

if(empty($this->from)) $this->from = Email::config()->admin_email;

But admin_email is NOT defined in database "siteconfig".

After some research, I found you have to had MANUALY in "mysite/_config/config.yml" something like that :

Email:
  admin_email: 'webmaster@mysite.com'

Don't you think that it should be automatic ?

By the way, in "framework/security/Security.php" LOSTPASSWORDHEADER is hardcoded. Whatever the language you use, it will always display the english text hardcoded in this file.

Hi blueace,

As stated on another post the github repo is where to raise issue - or maybe the dev list - but probably not for most.

For the record I don't think this is a good idea as I'd prefer the from is blank unless I set it.
