How to add a new name in the from box - NOT a new email address

Hi
I wish to add email addresses to the from box when I write emails.
I have my own domain name registered with a third party which I add forwards to which arrive in my thunderbird in tray and it is easy to add a new one to forward to my email server into thunderbird.
But cannot find out how to add the address the from box without adding a new email address?
I did manage it a few years ago with an old version of thunderbird but I have just move over from XP pro
to 7 Pro and had to install the new Thunderbird so must either be forgeting the simple or going daft in my old age!!
Help!
Cheers Mark

You need to add them.
One possible route is to add a new address as an alternative identity for an existing address.
Tools|Account Settings|{select account}|Account settings→Manage Identities

    This is the issue. They are telling you to get a specific email address.
    If this address is already taken, then what?

    Howdy Coralnut,
    It sounds as if you are having an issue with setting up your Gmail account on your iPhone for the purposes of using Messages, is that right? I would suggest that you use the steps in this article to troubleshoot -
    Gmail account cannot get or send email in iOS - Apple Support
    Specifically -
    Make sure your device is connected to the Internet by opening Safari and visiting www.apple.com.
    If you have other email accounts on your device, try to send and receive email from those accounts. If your Gmail account is the only one with the issue, fill out an unlock form, which proves your identity.
    Remove your Gmail account from your device and add it again: Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars > Add Account > Google. Enter your account information.
    Get more help
    If you have 2-Step verification enabled on your Google account, you'll need to generate an App Password to use with your iOS Device.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • EMOD- How do I set company name as the "From" field?

    Can anyone tell me how I can make my company name as the From field, so that when people get the e-mail it says, "From: Acme Widgets, Inc." ?
    Thus far in my tests I have only been able to get an e-mail address to appear in the From field
    Thanks!

    There does need to be an email address in the From field. You can do something like this to show the company name and an email address in the From:
    Initech, Inc. ${Contact.Owner Email Address}

  • How to add a dropdown menu to the search box (the 'search this site' box that appears on all subsites)

    Hello there,
    I know that in the search center you can add search verticals. Then you can configure the search box so it has a drop down menu so you can specify the result source you want to search. 
    But my question is about the 'search this site' box which appears on all subsites, so not the one in the search center. Is it possible to add the same dropdown menu to this box as in the search center?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add a dropdown menu to the search box.
    You need to look at the Search Settings page that is located under the Site Collection Administration of the Site Settings.
    Here are some similar blogs for your reference:

  • When I send an attachment file from my Yahoo account, it automatically list my wife's Thunderbird, Cox email in the from box, instead of my email.

    Can not highlight the "from" box to change to my email. Even though I am sending this from my Yahoo mail box, when any attachment is added it shows that it is coming form my wife's cox.net email??

    Tools menu (alt+T) > account settings > outgoing server (smtp)
    Check you actually have an outgoing server for your yahoo account configured. The inability to change from one sender to another indicates there is only one outgoing account defined.

  • Add new email address question

    Hello,
    I want to add a new email address to my .mac account. When I tried to do that, a week ago, I was informed that I would have to delete one of the addresses I have already, so I did that. Then I was told I would have to wait until January 8th before I could add another address. OK, so I've waited. Not a huge problem at all.
    But today is January 8th (almost 6am PST) and I'm not being allowed to add the name. I suppose I can wait longer if need be, but does anyone know why this is happening? Will I have to wait until January 8th has gone by?

  • Why did I get a new email address?

    I don't understand how I got a new email address with iCloud.  My mobile me email address was [email protected]  That still shows up in Mail.app as iCloud except that I can no longer log in.  Now there is a new account in Mail.app named [email protected] for which I don't know the password.  How can I get this fixed?   I really don't want to change my email address for every contact that I have.
