Let's say joe@gmail.com regularly sends emails to ann@yahoo.com. Ann, as the email recipient, can configure her email client (Outlook, iOS email client, Yahoo web client...) to show the sender as &quot;Joe&quot; rather than &quot;joe@gmail.com.&quot; Let's say Joe configures his emails to appear as &quot;Joe the Amazing&quot; as the sender. If Ann receives an email from Joe, will &quot;Joe&quot; appear as the sender (her setting) or will &quot;Joe the Amazing&quot; appear as the sender (his setting)?

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program in the category of groupware environments used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions may internally act as an email client; as a whole, it is commonly referred to as webmail. Likewise, email client may be referred to a piece of computer hardware or software whose primary or most visible role is to work as an email client. Email clients can also have other systems, like calendars, notes and contact managers.
