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

When my email address is sent with my mail I composed,Does it have to show my full name? How can I avoid that?

  • Answer:

    You just need to change the "from line" setting. 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. 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.
