Change User/Sender E-mail Name

By Laura Noble

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.

Below are instructions for changing the user information in Outlook and Outlook Express.

Outlook:

  1. In the main Outlook window, select Tools, E-Mail Accounts.
     
  2. Select View or change existing e-mail accounts.
     
  3. A list of email accounts will be displayed. Click on the email account to update and then click on the Change button.
     
  4. In the User Information section click in the Your Name box and fill in the name you would like displayed as the Sender.
     

     
  5. Click the Next button.
     
  6. Click the Finish button.

Outlook Express:

  1. In the main Outlook Express window select Tools, Accounts.
