HiEmail address as a specific address that is set and the only way to be change is to change the name of the account.Example, jack_smith@mail.comThe jack smith would be displayed no matter what unless you change the account on the mail server (or with your ISP) to something like jack-123@mail.comMost email applications let you add a prefix to the address. If an email looks like this,Jack Smith Of the USA [jack_smith@mail.com]The part in the square parenthesis is the address that cannot be changed unless you change the account.The part in front that says Jack Smith Of the USA can be changed to anything that you want and it will not change the actual address.The part in the prefix can be changed on you email application.

If, for example, it's Outlook Express, read the following (which is atleast at approximately right; I don't have Outlook Express installedon any of my machines here to look at it and be sure): Go to Tools | Accounts, click your e-mail account, and chooseProperties. There will be a field there called something like "Yourname." Change it to have only your first name, not both names. If you run some other e-mail program, it will be slightly different,but similar enough that reading the above instructions should guideyou. Ken Blake
