 * When a “lost password request” is issued, I get 2 e-mails.
    The first contains
   only the following line: Password Lost and Changed for user: – – – – – – – The
   second contains: Login: Password: 362207 Login at: [http://action.counteveryvote.org/wp/wp-login.php](http://action.counteveryvote.org/wp/wp-login.php)
   3 problems or concerns: It looks like the first message is supposed to be the
   header for the second. The login name is not inserted into the message. The e-
   mail is sent from “me@localhost.com” – how do I configure the “from address”?
