  • Answer:

    Adjusting the From field changes how your name appears in other peoples' incoming mail. You can also adjust the email address they will send a message to when they click Reply. Yahoo! Mail Beta: 1.Click Options in the upper-right corner of your Mail page and select Mail Options. 2.From the list on the left, click Accounts. 3.Click Add or edit an account – it is toward the middle of the page. 4.In the box on the left, click Yahoo! Mail. 5.Click Edit. 6.In the From name: box, enter your name how you would like it to appear in the From: line of your outgoing messages. This is the name people will see in their Inboxes for messages from you. 7.You can leave the Reply to: field blank, so your Yahoo! Mail address is automatically the return address when others reply to you. Or, you can specify a different return address by entering it after Reply to:. 8.Click Save to put your new settings into effect. This link should take you there. http://us.mg1.mail.yahoo.com/ym/Preferences?YY=96626&y5beta=yes Note: The From name field cannot contain special characters like the @ symbol.
