If you are using the web interface, your recipients have no way of seeing the account name in the headers for a send. (FastMail has a special header that allows them to trace back to the originating account if necessary.) On a reply or forward, I believe na x-delivered-to header from the original message receipt may give you away. When using an external mail client, there can be additional headers can could give away the account name.
