Is there a way to hide a sender's name when sending e-mail? We're trying to set up an in-house suggestion box via e-mail, but the senders need to remain anonymous. We use Outlook 2000.

Even if the "From" window is left out of the form, the sender's name is still visible in the recipient's Outlook "From" column. As the suggestions are being sent to an individual's mailbox along with regular e-mail, I doubt they want this column hidden.

We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.

Although this did not give me the answer I needed, it did provide some other useful resources. Most of these sites refer to sending mail outside the office. Also, the one site that looked somewhat promising has lost its link. I need something forinternal e-mail exchange only.

this is a bit wieldy but it will work. Get your users to open up a web email address using an alias. They only use this for sending in suggestions. No one would know who they were.

If you have hundreds of users ??!!! oh well.
