Set the sender name of message

Question

Hi all,
I have given my company mail address as the sender as following.
message.setFrom("[email protected]");
In yahoo mail and gmail, it displays "[email protected]" as the sender of the message. I want to display the name of sender rather than email address. Is there anyway to do this programatically?
Thanks and regards
