It's much easier than that. In a mail composition window for the
NG in question (e.g., your reply to this post), click anywhere in
the "From:" field and edit as you please -- add characters,
delete characters, etc. See what I've done for this post.

I guess the question be is will what I have edited as shown above
be saved in the "managed Identities" file. I'll find out in a
minute.

As I suspected, the FROM: I used is not saved anywhere. The only to
save it is to edit the "Manage Identities"

Yes. As I understood the OP's query, he wanted to do a temporary, volatile edit of the "From:" field for the current message only, just as I did.

If instead he wants to make permanent changes, that has to be done as you describe, or else at Edit | Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings....

Well, actually, following your instructions, I couldn't find "Manage Identities," and that search string returns no hits in the Help file (which is pretty poorly indexed, so that doesn't prove much). But I eventually did find it AFTER I went to Edit | Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings... and selected the account. That first step is essential.
