How can I hide my full name from everyone else on a contact list when I
receive email from a friend?

Thanks for your answer, but Maybe I was not clear enough with the
desription of my problem: Why does my REAL name, first and last, show up
instead of just my E-mail address?

Because you have no control over someone else's email program, which
is what is formatting your info on the received message.

They have you set up as a contact, perhaps in Outlook. When you are set up as a contact in someone's e-mail the person usually fills out first & last name and e-mail, plus other things. For work the contact portion of Outlook contains all my contacts with name, company, phone, address, etc... When I choose my recipient I choose by name not by e-mail address. You may want to ask your sender to BCC you.
