How can I only show email address and not my name with outgoing mail?

How can I remove my full name from showing up when I send mail? I just want my email address to show.?

  • Answer:

    You just need to change the "from line" setting. Mail page>>options>>mail options>>and the "general" page opens. Near the top of that page----erase whatever is showing, on the "From line" and type in something else---a nickname---or anything you wish-----then click "save" changes at the top of page. ......................................… You CAN'T leave that line blank---otherwise Yahoo will insert something there---either the account name or most likely "False". You can even put your email address there (then it'll show twice). ......................................… 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.
