Email Sender For Updates
-
How can I change the sender for any outgoing email updates? Currently, the sender is wordpress, but this is a product blog, and I want the sender to be the name of the blog. I would love to know where in the settings users are able to change the sender.
Thanks to whomever is willing to help!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You can’t. Also note the following please. In a nutshell no blogger initiated advertising, retailing or reselling the work created or services provided by anyone other than yourself is allowed on free hosted wordpress.COM blogs. E-commerce transactions via shopping carts and the like cannot be conducted on free blogs from and being free hosted by wordpress.COM
The advertising exceptions noted in support documentation are for high traffic blogs that qualify for and are accepted into the Ad Control program, and for extremely high traffic blogs that qualify and are accepted into the paid VIP hosting program.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/advertising/The exceptions noted in support documentation with regard to affiliate links are found here:
Affiliate marketing blogs: Blogs with the primary purpose of driving traffic to affiliate programs and get-rich-quick schemes (“Make six figures from home!!”, “20 easy steps to top profits!!”, etc). This includes multi-level marketing (MLM) blogs and pyramid schemes. To be clear, people writing their own original book, movie or game reviews and linking them to Amazon, or people linking to their own products on Etsy do NOT fall into this category. http://en.wordpress.com/types-of-blogs/

I am having the same problem. I host a food blog – A Happier Meal – and would like the email subscribers to receive message from from in that name, not WordPress. I know another blog – also a free wordpress hosted site – where this happens. Any ideas on how to change the sender?

I’m sorry but we cannot make such changes. http://en.support.wordpress.com/blog-subscriptions/

Will you please include the a link for the wordpress.com free hosted blog where you believe such a change has been made in a support ticket to Staff? http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/
Once you get an answer from Staff will you be kind enough to return to this thread and share it so others can benefit from it?
