Tools, Accounts, Mail/News, Properties, General. Fill in the FROM field
as desired. Note that each mail and news account has its own settings.

The e-mail address there needs to be filled in correctly or else people
will not be able to reply to your e-mail.

Outlook Express will just display what's in the FROM field. Other mail
programs may or may not also display what's in the e-mail address field
there. You have no control over that.

I am trying to change my "From" field when I send a message from my
email
address and my chosen name to just my name. Is that possible? Right
now, it
shows for example; Mike....and Mike is highlighted.
I
would prefer just the name Mike be seen.
