The From: address in outgoing mail, in this circumstance, is set in your IMAP email client. Since you didn't specify which one you're using, it's impossible to give specific instructions, though all of them have settings to allow you to set your name as it should appear in outgoing mail.

thx Michael, I agree with your observation. I am using the webmail client and have included a screenshot of the account setting. thx – timpone – 2012-11-09T23:01:56.320
Oh, so you're using Gmail. What's the thing about IMAP for, then? – Michael Hampton – 2012-11-09T23:02:38.727
So, I can't find where I can set the From email in IMAP - it looks like this is an email level setting and NOT an admin level setting. Thx – timpone – 2012-11-09T23:04:43.527
Again, what email client are you using? – Michael Hampton – 2012-11-09T23:05:45.753
just web interface. – timpone – 2012-11-09T23:07:09.187
Then why do you keep mentioning IMAP? – Michael Hampton – 2012-11-09T23:07:31.553
Looks as if the google app settings go a different path once you set it as an IMAP account. Sorry for any confusion. If I'm incorrect - I really just want to change the sent from for the web interface. Any help is appreciated. I get the screenshot by going to Settings -> Accounts thx – timpone – 2012-11-09T23:10:06.530
