When a new member registers, they are automatically sent a message informing that their registration has been received and will be confirmed on approval.  This message contains my personal email address and I don't want it to appear.  Is there any way of hiding it?

Will it be ok to remove my email from here?  Or, is there a way to stop sending new members that notification on registration?

Songbird - Just a suggestion.  I have never used my personal email address for forum business.   You could create a new email account and use it for your forum, change the Administrators email account in Forum Settings.  You could create one in Gmail/Hotmail/Yahoo whereever you wish.   That way all forum emails would come from that email address and not your personal address.

Thanks a lot SMF and Sybil.    Yes, I did find an option at admin > registration.  I've unchecked the box against "send welcome email to new members."
