Help Name displayed on outgoing message

[zmetman62]

Is there a way to change the name displayed on outgoing emails, on an account (Hotmail) setup using Microsoft Exhange ActiveSynch, after the initial setup? I can't seem to find an option.

Theres no option in my exchange account but tbh I think it gets my name from the exchange server for me.

Did you definitely set one up when you added the account? If not I would assume as with exchangecand Gmail, it picks it up from the account itself.

Otherwise you may have to re-add it

I don't quite recall as I set it up a couple of months ago. I don't normally send emails from the account, mostly just receive. My name shows up as first initial and lastname only which is part of my email address. Maybe I will delete it and set it up again to be sure.

Yes I would but also login to hotmail on the web and check your settings there as it may simply be pulling it from there
