Use the bcc feature. That will hide the addy's of all recipients. Most people really appreciate it when you do that, it's so much safer.\n\nHey, other answerers, addressee is the person it's addressed to, not the sender. \nad·dress·ee    ( P )  Pronunciation Key  (dr-s, -drs)\nn. \nThe one to whom something is addressed.

Just try to block the e-mail address from where you are getting those e-mails.\n\nNote: Any One can send an email with anyones name suppose an ID of you friend if I wanna attack you I will send you an e-mail with an IDofyourfriend@yahoo.com, Attackers can also send email from their own ID but to you it will display any thing they want for example you can get attractive message subject as Free software from Microsoft and you will also see that the email is from microsoft in the sender.

For e-mail, seperate the names with a semicolon:\n\nme@myserver.com;you@yourserver.com;someone@herserver.com

If you use Yahoo Address Guard (options) "address guard" you can give out a different yahoo address (example: yournameemail-wal-mart@yahoo.com) whenever you sign up for something.   If you get email at that address you know who is sending it or who sold it.\n\nCheck it out.  Great yahoo feature.

Simple dont tell your address to anybody. Block all your friends email id on that account.

Not really. People can have multiple email addresses either under their real name or an anonymous one. The only way to know for sure who an email address belongs to is to subpoena the records of the ISP (internet service provider).

Use the `bcc` field to put all of your friends email addresses in.  By using `bcc` (which means Blind Carbon Copy) there will be no addresses visible to anyone else.\n\nIt may say `undisclosed recipients` but there will be no address visible.

For your Yahoo email do the following:\n1- Log to your email account\n2- Select Options in the right top corner\n3- In the Management Column, select General Preferences\n4- In the "From name:" field type the name you want people to see when they receive an email from you.\n\nHope this helps. Good luck.

For Yahoo: \nIn Mail:\nGo to options, \nThen click on General Preferences, and there they have the From name. Change it there...

You can't change the names on emails that you received - those are permanent.  You could, however, forward them to yourself and change the name that way.  The downside to that is that if you are looking at a list of your emails, the list won't show the original sender.\n\nYou can't change the name of the Inbox either, but you can create a new folder and just move the emails you have to the new folder.  On the left where the folders are listed, click on Add, then type the name you want in the popup box.  When done, check the emails you want to move to that box and then click on the button that says Move... and find the new box in the list.\n\nYou can go one step further and filter your emails as they come in.  Of course, you'd have to have a filtering criteria (i.e. all emails from joesmith@yahoo.com go to the Joe box).  But if you had that, then go to Options near the top right, then to Filters and set it up that way.

Yahoo does have a way to block email IDs.\n\nGo to Options / Filters\nand add a filter to automatically move emails from that address to Trash..
