Hi everyone! here is my problem, one of my users created a contact list that contains email addresses of people from outside our email organization. before when he created an email, he would choose the recipient from his contact list, then the full email address of the recipient would show up on the "to" box. but now all of a sudden the email address stop showing on the to box just the first and last name of the person his sending the email to. can anyone please tell me how to bring this feature back. thanks.
 
Change the Display name of the contact.

Chris, would you mind telling me the steps in changin the display ? thanks
 
Sure. Are these Outlook Contacts or are they contacts created inside of a Personal Address Book (.pab)?

In Active direct users&computers snap in go to the properties of the user in question, be sure to select view/advanced features first to display &quot;exchanged advaced tab&quot; <-- here is where you can change display names 01110000
 
jaksen, I don't think that he's asking about Exchange accounts. I think he's asking about Outlook contacts and/or personal address books. Is this correct, vibestayo? ---------------------------------------

These was created under contacts in outlook, but the individual contacts do not belong to our email organization . these our internet email address. sorry for the confusion.
 
Open the contact and change the &quot;Display As&quot; field. You can just copy and paste the email address here if thats what you want it to show.
