On a normal WordPress site, once a new user registers, the user is created in the database. Then an email is sent to the new user with their login credentials. Very simple. As it should be.

The New User Approve plugin modifies the registration process. When a user
registers for the site, the user gets created and then an email gets sent to
the administrators of the site. An administrator then is expected to either
approve or deny the registration request. An email is then sent to the user
indicating whether they were approved or denied. If the user has been approved,
the email will include the login credentials. Until a user is approved, the
user will not be able to login to the site.

= How do I customize the email address and/or name when sending notifications to users? =

This is not a function of the plugin but of WordPress. WordPress provides the
*wp_mail_from* and *wp_mail_from_name* filters to allow you to customize this.
There are also a number of plugins that provide a setting to change this to
your liking.
