[QUOTE="Ember1205, post: 1760451, member: 374272"] An alias is actually most useful for 'hiding' the -actual- email address. You can create an alias, communicate with people via that alias, and then delete it without ever having to give out or affect your real email address. The ask here was to actually keep using the real email address but change the name that gets displayed to the recipient. You know those emails that you get from "Apple Support" but are really from some bogus email address? That's not an alias - that's editing of the friendly name. [/QUOTE]
