I have set up a distribution list and would like to have just the name of my
orgination to show in the From field when items are sent out and not my
personal name and e-mail address.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks Allen
 
Thanks Tom, but I do not see what your asking me to look for. I'm using
Outlook XP and when I look in the e-mail accounts (I think that's what your
asking me to do) I find no 'General tab', no 'Properties' for my mail
profile. So I'm still at a loss at what to do.
I do want to than you for your help.
 
Hi Allen,

Under 'Tools' then 'Accounts'. Click on the mail tab. From click on
'Properties' of your mail profile. In the 'General' tab you will see
'Name' and 'Organization'. You can change either one or both.

Run a few tests by sending something to yourself until you get what you
desire.
 
"Tools" -> "E-mail Accounts" -> "View or change existing e-ail accounts";
"Next>" -> select the account to modify, then "Change..." -> change "Your
Name:" and/or select "More Settings..." -> change your "Organization:"
