When you go to send a bulk email, it gives you the option to use the noreply email or the board email you set in the preferences. Now though, when I went to send an email, I got this instead of the choice of which email to send it from.

The email will be sent from noreply@zetaboards.com, but any replies to the email will be sent to info@roleplayfor.me.

Why can't I choose anymore?

The option did not work before the update -- it remained as being sent from noreply@zetaboards.com. Not only this, but email services have gotten much smarter these days. Trying to send an email as someone else is fraught with danger and often is marked as spam. Therefore, it was decided that it would be more effective to simply remove the option.

I fail to see how an email such as info@roleplayfor.me can be marked as spam when noreply@zetaboards.com can't. The first also looks much better to those receiving the email. Members aren't going to know that they can reply to that email and it goes to the custom one. They're going to see noreply and not reply.

Not only that, but noreply email addresses look very unprofessional when coming from a community, especially a small one, which makes us look like we don't want their replies.
