changing name with email when sending emails

Question

MailMessage message = new MailMessage(email.From,
                                                      email.To,
                                                      email.Subject,
                                                      email.Body);

but i can not see name when i get email. I want that instead of "[email protected]" i will get name like "Confirmation" or something else. Can i change email with name in from field in web.config?

<add key="ActivationUserFromEmail" value="'Confirmation' <[email protected]>" />
