How to Change the Reply Name on Delegated Emails

Most modern day email clients allow you to easily change the reply name/reply-to address on delegated emails. For this purpose, you will have to configure the email client with the new reply-to name. Once configured, all the emails that you send will include the new reply name/reply-to address prompting the email recipient to reply to the new address.
