Email salutation

30. July 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: , ,

My mailbox server has recently changed to an Outlook based (.live) platform and I have opened an additional business email using the same account as my personal name. Everything is fine if I use their website but I prefer to use MS Outlook as a work base and operate both my private and business (additional) email addresses through Outlook proper.

When sending from the business email address Outlook is "picking up" my personal salutation as a prefix to the actual email so that it appears to anyone receiving business mail from me that it is personal email in their inbox (and not from my business)

 

For example, currently I have FROM:  warren john <fishing*** Email address is removed for privacy ***>  where my clients appear to have an incoming email from "warren john" (the remainder of the address either dropping off or being deleted). 

Would love to know how I fix this this so that my clients see in their inbox (from) *** Email address is removed for privacy *** so that they can identify me correctly.

 

I have searched through Outlook to the best of my ability and have not been able to find a fix that works. The contact card is all AOK (no "warren john" anywhere). Would appreciate any thoughts/ideas.

 

Cheers

I have 15 email accounts all working in my one Outlook. Some are business and some are person. When ever I send or receive a reply the top of the reply email has "From:, Sent:, To:, Subject:".

From: ***** <****@yahoo.com>
Date: Wednesday, 2 January 2013 4:18 PM
To: [MY NAME] <****@gmail.com>
Subject: Re: Add to list?

The "From:" or "To:" always has my personal name (depending if I'm receiving or sending). When I send business emails I'd like it to have my business name or when I send an email for a different account I'd like it to have a different name. How do I make it so it doesn't always input my personal name?

In my account settings each email address has a different name and this name appears in the inbox, however it doesn't appear in the reply text within an individual email.
