This would require the Sender field to accept a GECOS fileld. While
while allowed by RFC 2822 which defines the Sender header as:

  sender = "Sender:" mailbox CRLF
  mailbox = name-addr/addr-spec
  name-addr = [display-name] angle-addr
  angle-addr = [CFWS] "<" addr-spec ">" [CFWS] / obs-angle-addr

is not supported by any MTA or MUA that I've run across here.

Note:  I don't have Outlook.
