Jacob-

I am sorry to bother you again but I have been unable to clear up the
problem I am having with someone else's name appearing in the TO field of
the listserv mailings that come to me (instead of my name as list owner and
editor) -- when someone mails a request to the listserv it comes to me but
has Dr. XXXX's name in the TO field, also when someone posts a message by
email to the list they get confirmation that the message has been forwarded
to Dr. XXX (instead of me) for approval. Through the WWW interface, today I
posted a second message with my name in the COMPOSE A MESSAGE page (because
several weeks ago I had sent off a message for this Dr. XXX - and had put
his name in the Your Name blank- and since then have had the problemes with
his name appearing on the e-mails to the listserv and as the default name in
the COMPOSE A MESSAGE site). I just checked the site to see this action
somehow switched it back to my name, but the default name is still Dr. XXXX
and not mine!

Can you give me any idea of how I can change this setting? Or set my NAME in
the configuration (my e-mail address is there as editor) so that I can take
care of this problem?  I don't think this is just a Microsoft Outlook
problem because all of the e-mails (not having to do with the listserv) come
to me with my name in the TO field.  I am really frustrated with this as
noone seems able to help me. I would appreciate any help or suggestions- and
please ask any questions to clarify points.

Thanks so much for your help.

Patricia Owen

I'm having trouble figuring out exactly what's going on here.  I
suspect this has  a lot to do with how your email client is
displaying things; I'm not sure what it translates to in terms of
what is actually being sent.  Sorry.
