Thank you so much, Constantine! That was the clue I needed. It’s not exactly the cleanest solution, but it does get the job done. I copied AdminEmailHandler and mail_admins and modified them appropriately to include the from_email address.
I had some issue with “Apps not loaded,” but all I had to do then was move “from django.conf import settings” to the top of the file before all other imports.

I would suggest to override 'AdminEmailHandler' and 'mail_admins'. for more information check logging documentation<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/logging/>.

I would not be confused because the subject line of the email indicates that it is coming from the Django app starting with [Django]. The value in receiving the emails with the user’s email address is so that if, for instance, the president of the company gets an error page or anyone else gets an error page, I can very quickly determine which error I should focus on by simply glancing on who the email is from. (In this case, the president…) From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] On Behalf Of Constantine Covtushenko Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2016 2:27 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Admin Email From Address Sorry but I do not see any valuable reason of doing things in such way. Email is sent from wrong sender. And if someone decides to email back than those user would be confused. It is better to call things by its name.

Not always cod runs with user interaction - worker cases 2. Not always user authenticated With such cases who the sender should be? Regards, Constantine C.

It would be convenient in triaging errors rather quickly. I did examine the Django source code, but it doesn’t appear to be possible without writing my own custom function. Any ideas?
