  • i can not figure it out . when i see send a email i want to put my sons name there n not mine how do i change taht so when some one gets my e mail it will have my sons name

  • Answer:

    Go to your settings and change the "from line setting" Yahoo has recently changed the settings menu around. This is the New way to change the "from line" setting. Works on both versions. Mail page>>options>>mail /more options>>Accounts (from the list on the left)>>then click on "Yahoo Mail" (middle of page). Now you'll need to erase whatever is showing, on the "From line" and type in something else---a nickname---or your sons name-----then click "save" changes at the top of page. ......................................… You CAN'T leave that line blank---otherwise Yahoo WILL insert something there, that you might not want. (sometimes the word False)
