Display email address instead of "friendly name"
Greetings.
I'm using Outlook 2003; Exchange is my mail server. Not sure of the version. Is there any way to have Outlook display an email address in the To and From fields of a sent or received message instead of the "friendly" First Name Last Name? The "friendly name" is of no use to me in that I don't know what company the email is coming from unless I can see the email's domain of origin. I don't need the sender's/receiver's name to display; I need their email address. Thanks for your attention. Jeff |
Display email address instead of "friendly name"
The sender controls that, not the recipient.

Where does one control that (being the sender)?

ToolsE-mail AccountsNext. Select your account. Click Change. The top-most, left-most field is where the "friendly name" is defined. -- Brian Tillman |

If you're talking about receiving mail, you can set up rules or customize Outlook to show you mail sent from X or to Y in a different color, or move that mail to another server. etc. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ...
