MailMessage Mask From Email address

I need to send a email from application with text in the from field. I have the from email address, but how do I mask the email address so the from message renders the text not the email address?

From stackoverflow
  • MailAddress (that you will use for 'To' and 'From' properties) can take a display name along with the address in its constructor. You need to verify how different mail clients use the value to display (most use a combination of both).

  • You can add a name to the sender this way, using the MailAddress object:

    MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
    message.From = new MailAddress("john.doe@foo.bar.com", "John Doe");
    
    Dedrick : MailMessage message = new MailMessage(); message.From = new MailAddress("John Doe", "john.doe@foo.bar.com");
    splattne : According to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/1s17zfkf.aspx it's address first, then name
