Change sender name using Windows 10 mail app

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand your concern as you would like to change the name of the sender in the Email using mail app. In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, please reply with the answers to the questions below.

• What is the Windows 10 Version and Build installed? (Type
  winver in Windows search/Run command)
  
• What is the Mail app Version installed?
  
• Do you see the primary email account holder name on the email, sent using the secondary email account?
  
• Does the email recipient also sees the primary email account holder’s name, instead of the actual sender?
  

In this scenario, we would suggest you to perform these steps and make the changes.

1. Open Mail
   app and click on the Gear icon at the bottom left.
   
2. Now click on Manage accounts
   under Settings.
   
3. Select any one secondary Email account from the list.
   
4. Click on Change mailbox sync settings.
   
5. Change the name under
   Send your messages using this name to the correct account holder.
   
6. Repeat the same steps for all the email account holder other than the Primary account holder.
   

Regards,

While sending mail, does not show my name, instead shows my email address

I would suggest you to follow the steps to change the Account display in Mail app:

1. Open Mail app

2. Select “settings”.

3. Under settings select “Manage Account”.

4. Click on the Account name

5. Change the Account name

If still not working, try the steps below:

• In the Mail app, open Settings (the gear icon).
• Click 'Manage Accounts'
• Select the account you want to change the outgoing display name for
• Click 'options for syncing email, contacts, and calendar'
• in the account sync settings, there should be a 'Your name' text field that is used as the display name for outgoing emails.

 

Mail app will not open on 10041.

Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it.

In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

• Open powershell as administrator
• Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
• Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)
