Default Can I change the "From" in an email merge?

I'm merging a letter in Word format to email. The data file is in Excel
format. This method allows me to create a separate email for each recipient
and each recipient does not see the addresses of the other recipients.
However, I cannot find a way to change the "From" field. I frequently send
individual emails "From" or "on behalf of" my boss and would like to do the
same with the email merge. Is this possible? Thank you.

You need to create an account in the name that you wish to appear as the
sender and have that set as the default email account for duration of the
merge.
