    You received an answer for Messenger and for Outlook Express. Here's the one for regular Yahoo Mail. Click on the "Options" link in the upper right of your yahoo mail page. When it opens, scroll down to and click on "General Preferences." At the top of the page that opens, in the box across from "From Name", change what you have to whatever you want displayed in outgoing mail. Go to the bottom of the page and click "Save."
