How do I remove my real name from the e-mail?

I recently saw an email I had sent & the from box included my full name.How can I remove my name from sent eml

• I had no idea my real name was being transmitted with every email I've been sending. What I want to do is remove my name so only the email address shows. Any suggestions?

• Answer:

  You just need to change the "from line" name. Mail page>>options (top right)>>scroll to and click on "general preferences". At the top of that page----erase the name that shows on the From line and type in something else---a nickname or an alias or whatever suits you-----then click "save" at bottom of page. Sorry, you can't leave that line blank---otherwise, by default, Yahoo just re-enters previous name. Just in case you're using the "New Mail". Mail page>>options>>mail options>>accounts (side panel)>>add/edit an account>>Yahoo mail (side panel)>>edit>>general preferences----and change it and save it.
