You can actually configure the From: address that Webmin uses, although
it is a little obscure. Go to the Read User Mail module, click on Module
Config, and change the 'From: address to use when Webmin sends email'
field to we...@my....

Because code in that module is used by many others for sending email,
it's settings for SMTP and the From: address effect pretty much all email
sent by Webmin.
