I have 3 email accounts on my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II. I have a gmail account is only in the Gmail app. Then I have 2 email accounts in the stock E-mail application. One is a Live (aka hotmail) account and the other is my school email which is based out of gmail but doesn't end in gmail.com.

So when I go to the settings of the stock email app, and i go to the School email account, the settings say Account Name and then the next section is Your Name. The Account name is so I can tell one email from the other. for example my school email is listed as WGU and my Live.com email is listed as Live Account. The Your Name field is so I can put my name it. So if I send an email, it will show up in your in box as from Mike-Mike as opposed to email@live.com.

The problem is, there is an Account name for the settings of the Live account, but not a Your Name field. It's weird. the School one has it, but not the Live one?

anyone know why this, or how to fix it? I am not rooted btw

Maybe the Live account doesn't support changing the displayed name at the domain level? Just a thought.

I chatted with Samsung support online and they said it was not an available feature with the Live account
