How do I set up my from-name and from-address?

The from-name and from-address are who your email appears to come from. They're the first thing people see, before the subject, and they decide whether you look trustworthy or like a stranger.

Set them up right:
—
1. From-name: use a real, recognizable name like 'Mia from Inbox 101,' not 'Newsletter.'
—
2. From-address: send from your own domain ([email protected]), never a free Gmail or Yahoo address.
—
3. Set a reply-to that a human actually checks, so answers don't vanish.

✅ Avoid 'noreply' addresses. They quietly tell people you don't want to hear from them.

Homework: Check your last email's from-name. Would a stranger recognize who sent it?
