| In many cases e-mail
accounts are set up such that the Sender's name is also the sender's
proper name (e.g. Laura Noble) versus the company name (e.g. Noble
Software Solutions).
It is quite easy to change
the Sender name, so that when people receive emails from you, your
company name (or any name you desire) is displayed in the Inbox. In the
sample below, Noble Software Solutions - We Make It Click! is the
name that will be displayed in people's Inbox when an e-mail is
received.
