How to Address Those With Honorary Degrees

How to Use My Honorary Doctorate with My Name?
       I hold a few degrees and am about to receive an honorary doctorate. How do I indicate the doctorate with my name. I currently have BBA, B.Th, and an MRE. The doctorate will be in Theology.
            -- Marc Coffee

Dear Mr. Coffee:
       Honorary doctorates are not noted in direct address, so will not be addressed as Dr. (Name).  And the honorary degree's post-nominal abbreviation is not listed (with your name) with the degrees you earned. 
       Honorary doctorates are listed as an honor or award on your resume, rather than part of education with academic degrees. In a complete introduction it would be stated that "Marc Coffey received an honorary Doctorate in Theology from ..."
       It's a great honor, but it is an honor, not a degree.
       -- Robert Hickey

Use of an Honorary Doctorate with The Honorable?
       We have an newly elected official who received an honorary doctorate.  She wants to be addressed as Dr.   I’ve always followed the rule not to use a double honorific.  But to this person, it’s important.  (What can I tell you!)
        So is it:
                The Honorable Dr. Mary Jones
        Or is it:
                Dr. The Honorable Mary Jones?
              -- Anne Lesley

Dear Ms. Leslie:
      1.) In the USA "The Honorable" is not used in combination with honorifics. We just one thing at a time. So she is: The Honorable Mary Jones
      2.) If she wants to be addressed as Dr. then in a salutation or in conversation she'd be:
            Dr. Smith
      3.) Everyone is entitled to have their name be what they want it to be, But recipients of honorary doctorates are not entitled to be addressed as Dr.  
      In the USA all honors and distinctions would be mentioned on a resume under honors or noted in an introduction that she was a awarded a honorary doctorate etc.  
      You can't tell that to her of course, unless she asks your opinion, but she's going to look either ignorant of the correct style (not good for a person holding a doctorate I'd say) -- or pretentious if others know she's asking to be addressed as Dr. when the degree is an honorary one.
