When using Outlook, The users should only have to type in their initials,
such as LIB for Larry I. Baker, and the name should pop up. Instead, LB is the only thing that works for this user, and DMA instead of DAM. The user accounts are input correctly but this problems affects all mail accounts and I can't figure out how to correct it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

You might want to include some actual information with your post such as
Outlook version, information store, where the user is typing initials and what you imagined should happen when they did. Neither autoresolution nor autocompletion uses initials. To what could you possibly be referring when you are expecting a "name to pop up?" -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "jivester" wrote in message ...

I apologize, when adding to the TO: section while composing a new message in
Outlook 2003, our users can typically type in an username (we are a small company and usernames are intials, Ex. Leigh I. Blackburn LIB.) Usually the username will resolve to the email address, however, some usernames are mispelled, or simply wrong. an example is below, where Dennis A. Muchow, "DAM" will only resolve when you type in DMA as opposed to DAM. I have checked mailboxes, contact lists, and user properties and I cannot find where it is getting these name from. Any further Ideas would be appreciated. "jivester" wrote: When using Outlook, The users should only have to type in their initials, such as LIB for Larry I. Baker, and the name should pop up.

For starters you will need to clarify whether you are using autocompletion
or autoresolution. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "jivester" wrote in message ...

I've never seen autoresolution use initials. It uses an algorithm that looks
at first and last name elements and the email address. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "jivester" wrote in message ... Autoresolution... |
