Is this a question about Thunderbird?

If that is the case then we can move the question to Thunderbird support.

This sounds like an issue with your email service, not with Firefox (or Thunderbird).

It's possible that you need to set the sending name by logging into your webmail account online (ex. Yahoo! Mail or Gmail). Webmail providers like these often set the sending name themselves, ignoring the settings of your email client.

Unfortunately since this is not a Firefox issue you are unlikely to get help on these forums. I suggest you find the support site for your email provider, as they should be much more helpful.

Thank you Mark. It was indeed, my Outlook settings. You were spot on. Thank you for taking the time.
