External email display name in Exchange 2003
Dear all, Is there any method so that the external mail from a exchange account will use another name such as the user first name and last name insted of the display name? Thanks Alex

You can switch off sending the Display Name, but you can't change it to something else. http://exchangepedia.com/blog/2006/11/how-to-prevent-sending-display-names.html If you need to change the Display Name you can use a bulk edit tool such as ADModify.NET.

Alex, you in Exchange 2003, you can use SimpleDisplayName poperty (Exchange Advanced tab in ADUC). To force Exchange to use this values there is a tweak in registry (you can find it in Microsoft KB). P.S. It's very sad, that a user with MVP label suggests wrong thing! Grrr!!!
