Mail sender name repeats middle initial

A small but aggravating issue.
My name in Address Book has a middle initial: "T". When sending mail it displays the name as "<First> T T <Last>" but not for all accounts.
I can not find any "T T" names in the system except in previous emails.
Looked (almost) everywhere.
This one has got me baffled!

Looks like I've found "a" solution, hopefully "the" solution by stumbling around in the address book after checking user account, remote server and this here thread.
I have several email addresses and all of them have my name associated with them but ONE "card" associated with address in particular had a MIDDLE INITIAL entry field, where the rest did not. My hard headed /pragmatic (and i'm sure in the frenzy of setting up one or more of the POP accounts EXPEDIENT) solution was rather than figure out how to access the middle initial window by second guessing some over-clever Cupertino interface guru who made the function of this middle initial this option "so obvious" that it's eludes yours truly I cheated and put the initial in the first field... and since my name W T works like E. B. White's etc etc. this worked fine until ONE of the accounts like this started picking up the initial from the ONE in particular which HAD the initial field and utilized it as designed... Once that was deleted and harmonized with the other myriad "mickey moused" ones it cleared up the problem.
How to make the middle initial field reappear in all the other address cards save for the ONE is still beyond my understanding so let me know what I'm missing if ya'll know the easter egg to make this reappear...
Here's to hope this sticks and helps ya'll out, cheers –wt

Setting Mail sender name manually

hi
I am using 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1' function module to send mails. This function module takes the current user name as the mail sender name and sender mail ID.
Is there any way to set the mail sender name or sender mail id manually.
Thanks in advance,
Padmini

Hi.
First populate the Receiver ID's.
eMail Id of the Selected Employee
IF not P_RECV is initial.
    reclist-receiver = p_recv.

sort reclist by receiver.
delete adjacent duplicates from reclist comparing receiver.
Then use the FM you have used.

Changing the default mail sender name in Application server

Hi,
how do I change default mail sender name in application server.
It is administrator@application by default.

Does the email send from the operating system (sendmail ) or from the IAS?
If its from the ias , then its in the httpd.conf.
If its from the Operating system then I dont rememeber
If you have a non windows platform (like unix) easiest way will be to do a grep for "administrator@application "
Best Regards

I can not change my mail sender name

When I use iCloud.com for email, my sender name is incorrect and I can't get it to change, even though the correct name is set in the iCloud preferences and in my Apple ID. Any suggestions?

There is many kind of methods to do this but none of them can do in one shot for all, means change in one place (ipad, iphone, mac pc) and them forget the others, it depends from where you would send your mails you have to change in that place the id information, here is the tree methods whatever device you have.
FROM IPAD IPHONE
1. OPEN SETTING (GEAR ICON)
2. GO TO MAIL, CONTACTS, CALENDARS
3. OPEN ICLOUD MAIL ACCOUNT
4. HIT ON "ACCOUNT"
5. INSIDE OF ACCOUNT WINDOW HIT ON "MAIL" OPTION
6. CHANGE THE "NAME" AS YOU DESIRE, THEN "DONE" (3 TIMES UNTIL EVERYTHING CLOSE)
FROM ICLOUD EMAIL (PC OR MAC)
1. OPEN "MAIL" ON ICLOUD (BLUE ENVELOPE ICON)
2. HIT ON "GEAR ICON" (TOP RIGHT CORNER)
3. SELECT "PREFERENCE"
4. SELECT "ACCOUNT"
5. CHANGE "FULL NAME" AS YOU DESIRE, THEN DONE
FROM GMAIL ACCOUNT (if icloud is attached to)
1. OPEN YOUR GMAIL ACCOUNT
2. HIT "SETTING" (GEAR ICON AT THE TOP RIGHT CORNER)
3. SELECT "SETTING"
4. CHOOSE "ACCOUNTS AND IMPORTS"
5. POINTING ON YOUR ICLOUD ACCOUNT HIT "EDIT INFO" (AT THE MIDDLE RIGHT SIDE OF YOUR SCREEN)
6. ON "EDIT EMAIL ADDRESS" SMALL WINDOW CHANGE THE "NAME" AS YOU DESIRE
7. HIT ON "NEXT STEP"
8. FINALLY HIT " SAVE CHANGES"

How to link nickname on contact to Mail sender name

On iOs the sender name is replaced in Mail by the nickname described in Contacts.
On OS X Mail, this does not happen and You still see the complete mail address.
How to replace the complete mail address with the nickname ?

You likely need to wait for Apple to implement the iOS features in OS X. They are very much separate, but getting closer.

RSWUWFML2 sender name

Hi,
I'm using the RSWUWFML2 report to send mails with WI execution shortcuts. I have programmed a periodic job with a BATCH user for the report execution.
The problem that I'm having is that the mail sender name is obsolete, I've changed the BATCH user's first and last names through T-SU01 and the mails still coming with the previous one. For example, until yesterday the user's name was XXXXX and today the user name is YYYYY. Today the sender name into the incoming e-mail is XXXXX.
Why is this happening? Is there any buffer or something?
Regards.
Gregory.

Thanks for your answer Rick.
I didn't do anything, T-SOST is showing the sender's name wrong. But the incomming e-mail in my inbox has the correct sender's name.
Regards.
Gregory.

Mail 5.0 How To List The Name Of Recipient In Sent Mail Folder Apple Mail instead of sender name

Click 'View', Move cursor over 'Message Attributes' and check 'Mailbox'.
The above solved my problem. Now the 'Sent' mailbox shows the recipients' address instead of mine.

Change in sender name of mail sended through workflow

Hi All,
I have requirement where we want to chage the sender name decription for mails which are going through workflow.When we send mails through send mail step in workflow it is taking sender decription name automatically as "GSAP E1B WORKFLOW SYSTEM".
I have to change this decription to "OSIRIS Invoice". Is there any way to change sender name?
We are using SENDTASKDESCRIPTION method of SELFITEM object in send mail step.
Any help on this regards will be grate help...
Regards,
Rahul

Hello Rahul,
here, the sender's name is the user's name of the background user performing this task, i.e. usually WF-BATCH.
If you do not have any other workflow scenarios running that could interfere here you could possibly just change that user's name.
Otherwise you have to re-program the sendmail step to specifically set the sender description.
Best regards,
Florin
P.S: Workflow issues have a separate forum:
SAP Business Workflow

Sent items in mail box are sorted from sender name

Hi friends,
I just purchased P780 two days back & trying to configure my corporate mails ( & also my Yahoo mails ) on it using Active Sync. Everything works fine apart from the fact that when I am going to the sent items, it is sorting all my mails by the sender name ( which is me ) & I am not able to find any configuration where I can change it to sort using receiver name.
Please help me in sorting out this issue.

Rajesh

Changing the name of the e-mail sender

Hello guys,
Whenever someone changes the status of a service request then Siebel sends an e-mail informing the customer of that the status has been changed. When the customer opens the inbox he will notice that the sender is "[email protected]"We have a new request where the customer would like to view a different sender name in which instead of viewing "[email protected]" he would view "Technical Support Center" along with the message. Is there a way to change the name of the sender? If so how?
Regards,

Just use
"Technical Support Center" <[email protected]>
and not only
[email protected]
when you configure the from field.

You need a separate email address but you've already ruled out that solution.
