Setting the sender's name in the Mail app for Windows 10.

Like many people, I have multiple email accounts.

Each account is for a different purpose and has different “sender's name”.

I was surprised when I set up those accounts on my box and every mail sent from the Mail app had the same “sender's name”.

After a few moments searching the internet, I found the answer here.
