Re: Issue with custom recipient
Hmm i just read my own email and it seems very confusing. The basics of it is if you have John smith in your exchange database and then you have another John Smith come on board. How will outlook tell apart who is who.???/ List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
RE: Issue with custom recipient
If a recipient is ambiguous (for the reason you describe and for various others), then Outlook will prompt you to resolve ambiguous recipients either when you press Ctrl-K or when you send the message. -Original Message- From: Dennis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 08, 2002 3:36 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Issue with custom recipient Hmm i just read my own email and it seems very confusing.

RE: Issue with custom recipient
Right i got that far but how will it tell apart if you have two same dispaly names. John smith in accounting,John smith in Marketing. From what i understand Exchange does not recognize the spacebar. What i mean by that i have John smith_Accounting Then i have John smith_Marketing. It appears that in both it recognizes only Jsmith in the alias name unless i put them together [EMAIL PROTECTED] List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm

RE: Issue with custom recipient
Assuming that you're replying to me; I just tried this with two people whose names I know to conflict. I created a new message. I typed smith in the To: field I pressed Ctrl-K. Outlook popped up a dialog box, and among the choices listed were Office, phone, title, company and alias. Hopefully one of those can be used to identify the correct person. If the users try using the To. button when composing an email, they can also look at the properties of a GAL entry. I prefer user education instead of kludging the department names to the last name. What if John Smith_Marketing joins the IS department? Also, unique aliases can help. The first John Smith hired gets to be [EMAIL PROTECTED] The more recently hired one gets to be [EMAIL PROTECTED] (where x is his middle initial). -Original Message- From: Dennis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 08, 2002 4:19 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Issue with custom recipient Right i got that far but how will it tell apart if you have two same dispaly names.
