My users have complained about the multiple "I'm away from xxx until xxx" automated replies that they get when they post an entry and notifications are sent with their email in the "From" field.


Yes, I had the same problem with this forum.

Is there a way to override that default and always use the setting of the option Use Email From?


Sure. You override the default by setting the Use Email From. In the forum I set it now to Use Email From = noreply@psi.ch which is a nonexisting address. While now this is ok, our former email server did not accept this because the user noreply does not exist at our institute. So you have to figure out if this works at CERN.
