Setting the from name in a javax.mail.MimeMessage?

Viewed 54532

Currently, our application uses a javax.mail to send email, using javax.mail.MailMessage. We set the From headers of the email this way:

Message msg = new MimeMessage(mailSession);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress("mail@companyxyz.com"));

This works just fine, but we'd like to make the "From" section a little more user-friendly. Currently, someone receiving an email will see "mail@companyxyz.com" in the "From" section of their inbox. Instead, we'd like them to see "Company XYZ" there. I figure this is probably done with the addHeader() method, but I'm not sure what the header name would be.
