Two possibilities:

  • Most likely: you are an administrator in that other site as well, that's why you're receiving that email
  • Less likely: you have set up the $live_site in your configuration.php to the wrong site. If this happened, trying to access www.arushachildrenstrust.org would actually redirect you back to www.santander.com.br.

Hi Nicholas

No, I'm not a Santander administrator :) 

The message originates from my site and there is now a second message with the correct domain name. $live_site was not set, but is now so that will hopefully fix my problem. No idea where it could have obtained the santander name.

Thanks for your help
