[bbDev] Password confirmation email

[Sam Bauers]

The "admin email" is only used for the purpose of adding a from  
address to these emails. In fact in the next version of bbPress, it  
will be called a "from address" instead.

Just change the value in your installation to whatever you feel is best.
