Default Name change

Thanks for the response Brian.

I did make the changes in the contact page by going through the GO
Contacts links. The name is changed in there but when I receive an email
from this person the old name comes up on the inbox for example "old name"
and then below that the subject "test". I even deleted the contact via the
conacts and re-entered it. Like I said if I receive an email via my yahoo
account it comes up "new name", "test".

I have a contact who's name has changed. I changed my address book to
reflect the name change.


Never manipulate contacts via the address book interface. Update the contact
record in the Contacts folder.

Their email account in this case yahoo whas changed
and if I receive an email from them at any other yahoo, hotmail etc their
name is correct. Not on outlook. Does anyone have any suggestions or
solutions. I have searched the support and can't find anything usefull.


In what field are you seeing the incorrect "name"? Is it their name or their
address?
