Question: Under TOOLS/Account Settings / your name / what I chose for "your name" is not displayed when you send an email. What should do? Thank you! Paul
This looks like a problem with your email service, not with Firefox (or Thunderbird).
It is possible that you need to set the name sent by logging into your webmail account online (e.g., Yahoo! Mail or Gmail). Web e-mail providers like these often put sending appoint themselves, ignoring the settings of your email client.
Unfortunately, since it is not a matter of Firefox you're unlikely to get help on these forums. I suggest that you find the support site for your e-mail provider, as they should be much more useful.

Thank you!There is nothing you can do now. You can change your password to something else and take measures to ensure that your email account is not hacked again. Alternatively, you can visit the help of Gmail Help pages. You can also try the following
Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

Someone is using my account I don't know and hotmail blocked my account. The thing is that I don't remember the answer to my security question since its been for years, I've created this account. The alternative email address hotmail for me is not valid. I really need my account to be unblocked that all my contacts are stored. I did everything hotmail tells me to do, but I find myself always in the forums. What should I do? Help, please!

My email account has been hacked. What can I do to stop the unathorized email going to my contact list?
original title: hacked e-mail accountIf the hacker has your address list now I'm afraid there is absolutely nothing you can do.
If it is using your real address list (as opposed to having downloaded/imported) then change your password should do, but unless this intruder is a fool, he or she has already copied your list of contacts.
Please mark this as useful or response if applicable.
