asadiqbal08/Added setting to manage from_email address #212

Closed asadiqbal08 closed 3 years ago

Fixes: #209

Recent changes in spam filtering have caused bulk emails generated from within LMS to get erroneously labeled as spam. Apparently, the from_addr is dynamically generated by prepending the course number and name to the configured email and that's causing issues with the spam filter.

I added a setting that can be configured in order for those interested in just using the default configured email address as the from_addr to save them from dealing with issues with spam filtering as they would now need to only whitelist a single address.
