The message id for the confirmation message you want to alter is 'status_activated'.

You can intercept outgoing mail with hook_mail_alter() in a custom module as described at https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules!system!system.api.php/function/hook_mail_alter/7

function mycustommodule_mail_alter(&$message) {
  if ($message['id'] == 'status_activated') {
    $message['from'] = "[email protected]";
  }
}

Per user.module, the ids for other messages defined by the User module in _user_mail_notify() are:

 *   - 'register_admin_created': Welcome message for user created by the admin.
 *   - 'register_no_approval_required': Welcome message when user
 *     self-registers.
 *   - 'register_pending_approval': Welcome message, user pending admin
 *     approval.
 *   - 'password_reset': Password recovery request.
 *   - 'status_activated': Account activated.
 *   - 'status_blocked': Account blocked.
 *   - 'cancel_confirm': Account cancellation request.
 *   - 'status_canceled': Account canceled.

Answer 2

You can intercept outgoing mail with hook_mail_alter() as described here

https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules!system!system.api.php/function/hook_mail_alter/7

such as :

<?php

  function mycustommodule_mail_alter(&$message) {
    $message['from'] = "[email protected]";
  }

?>

NOTE : this changes it for all out going mail, you need to create a condition based on $message['id']

Also, as you really don't want that kind of thing hardcoded as it may change, you should create an admin settings form and save it to the database, returning the variable in the hook_mail_alter().

Try the settings at "site information", admin/config/system/site-information.
