Sometimes when receiving an e-mail from a distribution list I will notice an
associated name with each e-mail address in the list while at other times
when receiving an e-mail from a distribution list I will not see a name
associated with any e-mail address in said distribution list

How do you send a distribution list with a name associated with each e-mail
address in said list ?

Does this feature depend on the e-mail program or e-mail provider ?

Thanks in advance for your response
 
I thought it might have something to do with the e-mail software that the
sender is using

Are you saying that only certain e-mail software programs allow the sending
of an associated name with each e-mail address and if so what e-mail software
programs allow the sending of an associated name or (2) are you saying that
the sending of an associated name has something to do with the way the sender
enters the e-mail address in the To: field and if so how should enter the
associated name and e-mail address be entered in said To: field

Thanks in advance for your reply

Email software varies in the format it uses for what you see in the To:
field. Even successive versions of Outlook vary in how they configure the
Email Display As... field.
That field is of no consequence whatsoever since both name and email address
are always visible the the Internet Header of any message.
