RE: email displayed names
How do I find the format on DisplaySpecifiers, please? If it's what I think it is, it is currently Lastname, Firstname, but I've had it set both ways. The displayName is set to Firstname Lastname, this is what I changed to get the displayed name in emails to appear Firstname Lastname em...@company.commailto:em...@company.com.

We've always had names in AD and in the GAL displayed as Last name, First name. So, when a email message was sent outside the company, names appeared as Last Name, First name em...@company.commailto:em...@company.com. I was asked to change that so messages displayed the name as First name Last Name em...@company.commailto:em...@company.com. So, that was easy enough, then I get the next call... Once I got it displayed as fname lname in messages, it switched to fname lname in the GAL, but they still want it to be lname, fname in the GAL. Any ideas on how to get the best of both worlds?

All of my BIS users have gotten prompted for a password since last night's
debacle. We can't seem to get around this. Google gives me old info and nothing
current since last night.
Anyone else seen this?
I have a day old BES but I won't be able to get them converted right away.
Thanks in advance.

RE: Problems with PST files on a Network Drive.
I had this happen a while back, ended up rebooting the file server and the problem was resolved. Hasn't happened since. Would love to know what was going on... Jeff From: Kevan Dickinson [mailto:kevan.dickin...@cmi-plc.com] Sent: Monday, March 23, 2009 5:55 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Problems with PST files on a Network Drive. Hi Since Friday afternoon I have been having some people report that they can not open their PST files. All PST files are stored in users home drives on the Network. When trying to open the file from within Outlook they are told that they do not have permission to open the file. However they have full read and write access to the file. I reapplied permissions just in case. If I copy the PST locally then the file can be opened. If I copy the file back to the Network drive the error message changes to, Outlook can not open this file I know that Microsoft does not support PST's on a Network drive but we have worked this way for many years and I know that lots of other people do as well. Anyone any idea what may be happening here? It's affecting about 10% of our users at the moment and as I said earlier started happening on Friday afternoon. The clients are running a mixture of Office 2003 and Office 2007. We use Exchange server 2003. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

RE: Bizarre Outlook issue.. HELP
Maybe just rename the .n2k file instead of deleting it. Then you can go back to it, if it isn't the problem.

HELP I guess I could try that, but I'd rather not because the users really like to use that feature for easy addressing of emails. It seems like it may or may not be related to that, as we used the autofill option for several years without these issues. It just seems to weird that they can send an email without the extra address showing up in the To: field, and then it's somehow added when the email is sent.

HELP Okay, I used to think my users were crazy. Scratch that.. I still think they're crazy, but some weird things are going on with multiple people, so I don't think it's just a simple user screwed up issue. For the past few months, several users have been having issues in Outlook (2003) where they either start a new email, or hit reply, and it ADDS an address to the To: field at random. It seems to be an address that an email was previously sent to from that account. What's bad is that it happens with customers. So, for example: 1. I send an email to, say, Joe, talking about how we're having trouble with a job for customer A. 2. Joe replies to my email, yet somehow, a random email address (typically another customer, like customer B) is magically added to the To field. 3. Customer B replies with a WTH??? email. 4. People look at me with extreme frustration Any ideas what could be causing this? I don't think it's that they're accidentally hitting a key and it's using autocomplete to put a name in. The user that it happened to twice today swore that she checked the To field several times before sending the second email where this occurred (because obviously she was very nervous after it happened the first time.)

Rather than make a screen shot in system manager, why not just click the export button and dump it to a CSV file?
