Summary:
SharePoint list and library rules' automated emails will now be sent from no-reply@sharepointonline.com with the display name "SharePoint Online." This change is effective immediately and requires no action, but email policies and workflows might need updating to include this new address.

Details:
We're making a change to how emails are sent for customers that use list or document library rules, which can be created from the Automate dropdown. Users can specify an automated email based on when a change occurs, a new file or item is added, a file or item is deleted, and file or item metadata conditions. To align system generated emails with best practices, these emails will now come from the no-reply@sharepointonline.com email address with the display name "SharePoint Online".
Previously, these emails would be sent on behalf of the user that made a file or item update.
