I have my work email set up to be delivered to Entourage through my personal email's SMTP server. (I work from a home office.)

I removed my personal email from Entourage to Mac Mail recently. Now when I send email from Entourage the recipient sees the message from: "gia@ak.net" on behalf of (Work Email Name).

What can I do to stop this? I don't want my personal email address to show in my business communications.

This is the result of a "Sender" header. Assuming you are not adding this
yourself (Tools > Accounts > (Your Account) > Options > Additional Headers),
your home ISP's SMTP server is adding it. Contact them and request that they
stop doing this, or find another SMTP server (perhaps an authenticated
server provided by your work) that will not do this.
