  1. how do I change the sender's name in windows live mail


    Suddenly when I send emails, when they arrive at the recipient, instead of being from me, they show as being from someone else. How can I change the "From" on my emails so they are coming from me!

    :)

    Why Can't You Change 'Sender' Name In Mail App??


    With Microsoft saying Live Mail won't work soon, and to switch over to the Mail app, I've done just that. Although currently, Live Mail is still working fine. What annoys me is. Is that I cannot whatsoever change my sender name via Mail app, when sending emails. It basically displays the name I have on my MSN/Microsoft profile. I even changed that, but it hasn't updated. If I add another non Hotmail account to the app, I have the choice to display the name I wish. Microsoft really piss me off. Live Mail works fine. And now they're saying it's going to be made redundant pretty much, and now I switch over, I can't even change my display name?? They really are morons. If it's not broken. Why fix it?!

  3. live mail not working as expected.

    Hi Nigel,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue.

    I suggest you to follow steps and block the sender of the emails which are not required.

    a Sign in to your Windows Live Hotmail account.

    b In the upper-right corner of the page, click Options, and then click
    More options.

    c Under Junk e-mail, click Safe and blocked senders.

    d Click Blocked senders. Under Blocked e-mail address or domain:, enter the email address that you want to block and click Add to list >> button.

    You can quickly add a name to the Blocked Senders List by right-clicking the junk e-mail message, and then, on the shortcut menu, pointing to Junk E-mail and clicking
    Add Sender to Blocked Senders List on the shortcut menu. To remove a name from the
    Blocked Senders List, in the Blocked Senders tab, click the name you want to remove from the list, and then click Remove.

    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.

  4. how do I change the sender's name in windows live mail

    W10 Mail App displays sender as "name(at)outlook.com ON BEHALF OF name(at)mydomain.nl"

    This problem presents itself in the Windows 10 Mail app and does not show up on Outlook.com

    I use Outlook.com in combination with a connected account name(at)mydomain.nl

    Since last december there has been a change in the way the Mail app is displaying the sender address.

    Before Christmas it would just state: "name(at)mydomain.nl"

    After Christmas the Mail app displays the sender as "name(at)outlook.com on behalf of name(at)mydomain.nl"

    At oulook.com

    • I have deleted my connected accounts and re-installed them again.
    • I have also set and reset the Default sender address a number of times.
    • With little improvement.

    I suspect that the W10 Mail app is be a bit off in displaying the original sender address where it should show the return address like other mail clients do.
