1. Tools | Accounts - double click the account and change the name field to
what you want on screen.
Also change the email field to laura@nowhere.invalid

2. Tools | Message Rules | News - Make a rule like this:
This rule is currently turned off.
Where the message was sent more than 7 days ago
Delete it
and apply the rule manually to each news server.
