• Answer:

  To change how your name appears in other peoples’ incoming mail. For “yahoo mail classic” 1. Click Options in the upper-right corner of your Yahoo! Mail page. 2. Click mail options. 3. Click general preferences>type in the name you want to show in your mail. 4. Click Save to put your new settings into effect. For “all new yahoo mail” 1. Click Options in the upper-right corner of your Yahoo! Mail page. 2. Under “Management”, click General Preferences. 3. Right at the top, in the “From name:” type in the name you want to show. 4. Click Save to put your new settings into effect. NOTE: SOME MEMBERS HAVE HAD A PROBLEM FINDING THE “MANAGEMENT” BUTTON” (GLITCH?) THEN YOU NEED TO SWITCH BACK TO YAHOO MAIL CLASSIC AND FOLLOW THE INFO ABOVE. To switch back to "all new yahoo mail" see the link below. http://help.yahoo.com/tutorials/cg/mail/cg_migrate1.html
