Inbox showing my email

[defsoul]

HI,
For some reason whenever I recieve mail in my inbox, my email address is displayed instead of the senders email address or name, if the the email is sent to multiple recipients,the first recipients in the list is displayed instead of the actual sender.

Please help

Sounds like you have the To column configured instead of the From column.
See http://www.msoutlook.info/question/49
This guide is basically based on the reverse scenario.

the the email is sent to multiple recipients,the first recipients in
the list is displayed instead of the actual sender.

Click View>Arrange By>Current View and make sure "Messages" and not "Sent
To" is selected.

You should probably also replace the 'Sent' column with 'Received'.

Personally I prefer having the "Sent" column over having the "Received"
column. I don't care much about the random lag between the mail servers. If
you are on a busy discussion list, this (using the Received column) could
seriously mess up the sorting.
