I found the way to do it! My email client lets me replace the %from%
header field in the introductions by %Full-Name%, and then the
friendly name is extracted from the %from% field.
And what is even better: I can do it for each of my mail folders
separately, so the non-OM replies can keep their usual introductions.

Sorry for bothering,

Frank.
