  • Answer:

    How can I edit the "From" field in my messages? So, you want to go as “Flip” instead of “Frances”? “HotShot” instead of “Lee”? OK, we can do that. Adjusting “From” will change how your name appears in other peoples’ incoming mail. Here’s how to do it: Click Options in the upper-right corner of your Yahoo! Mail page. Under “Management”, click General Preferences. Right at the top, in the “From name:” box, enter your name how you’d like it to appear in the "From:" line of your outgoing messages. Example: “Sally Tiptoes”. If you want, you can also adjust the email address to which people send messages when they click “Reply”. If you leave the “Reply to:” field blank, your Yahoo! Mail address is the return address. Specify a different return address by entering it after “Reply to:”. Click Save to put your new settings into effect. Note: “From” can’t contain special characters like the "@" symbol. And, the address in “Reply to:” can’t exceed 40 characters http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/settings/settings-30.html

Hi Christain------Try it again---it's easy. 1st---go to mail page and click "options". 2nd---scroll to and click "general preferences". 3rd---at top of that page---erase name already there and enter what you want. 4th---VERY IMPORTANT--scroll to bottom of page and click "save". If you have Beta mail----do this----mail page>>click options>>click contact options>>click mail>>click general preferences>>change name and SAVE it.
