Changing display name for webmail sending

First version is:
Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.3-6.03 (built Mar 14 2008; 32bit)
libimta.so 6.3-6.03 (built 17:12:37, Mar 14 2008; 32bit)
SunOS net16 5.9 Generic_122300-51 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-T12
I would like to use another full name instead of the default cn for mails sent
out by webmail.
I've searched through this forum and found that most of the answers
seem to be doing the step:
1. add personalmap to the tcp_local stanza in imta.cnf
2. add to the mappings file, lines like:
PERSONAL_NAMES
*|[email protected] $YNew$ Name
I tried the above but didn't work
But I also found this answer, i.e. add this to option.dat
LDAP_PERSONAL_NAME=displayName
and it worked for me
Just wonder why the first method didn't work for me.
And curious to know which way is more proper.

Yes, I did issue that 2 imta commands after modifications of the imta.cnf and mappings files
By the way, does it matter where I placed the stanzas
Pls give me real examples of them for my reference.

Change display name for existing users

Hi,
We have alot of users in our Active Directory. After an migration our existing users are displaying their name wrong. When we create a new user the display name is set FirstName LastName. But all of our old users have their User logon name as display name.
Is there a way to change the display name of our old users to FirstName LastName instead of the user logon names they are displaying now? Doing this per user is a hell of a job so this really isn't an option.
Example:
Full name: Peter Peterson. User logon name: pepeter. Display name: pepeter. (old user)
Full name: Tom Thompson. User logon name: tothomp. Display name: Tom Thompson. (new user)
Greetz,
Tom

I have found a script for Powershell that may be the answer to my question. There is only one thing that is not in the script. The script runs for all users. The PageSize is set to 2000 so it runs 2000 entries. Is there a way that I can run this script for
all Users in AD that start with the letter "A" or with an other letter. :P

How to change the display name for Gmail aliases?

I have a Gmail account with multiple aliases. They look like this:
Joe User <[email protected]> (Primary)
Support <[email protected]> (Alias)
Billing <[email protected]> (Alias)
Works great. I'm trying to set up Apple Mail on my new MacBook to support the aliases as well. I am able to input the e-mail aliases, but the display names for all are 'Joe User' which defeats the purpose of having the aliases.
I have to imagine I can do this. Can someone help me out?
Regards,
Dave

Change display name of workflow email address in sharepoint 2010

Hi
How I can change display name of workflow email address in sharepoint 2010. I want to configure display name (from address)of email
for each site collection separately.for example I want to change "software unit"
in below pic to another name for my software unit site collection.
How I can do this?
Thanx.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change display name of workflow email address in sharepoint 2010.
In my environment, if I assign a task to a user, the email is as below:
The “test” is the site name, the [email protected] is the “From” user.
Do you want to change the “From” field in the workflow?
If so, you can have a look at the "Send email extended" custom SPD workflow activity (http://www.codeplex.com/SPDActivities
) which allow you to specify the sender.
Here are some similar threads for your reference:

It's possible change the Display Name ?

Hi,
My problem is:
When user send email to internet user ( ex: yahoo.com
or gmail.com etc. ) the messaging. must change the
DISPLAY NAME with other DISPLAY.
ex: from: Giovanni <[email protected]>

: External Mail <[email protected]>
I try with CONVERSION channel but it's change only
body of mail. Correct, the conversion channel only deals with MIME body parts and not the email headers themselves.
I try with reverse mapping but change only email
address don't change display name
#### mappings
REVERSE
*|tcp_local|[email protected] $D$Y"NEW
DISPLAY"[email protected]
Haven't tried this myself but will take your word for it.
I try with sieve filter but I don't know how change
FROM.
### imta.cnf
tcp_local destinationfilter
file:///opt/SUNWmsgsr/config/invia.filterWith 6.3 you could use the deleteheader/addheader to remove the From: and replace it with something else - this ability doesn't exist in 6.2.
What is the correct way ? There are other way ?
It's possible change the Display Name ? Yes.
You can change the display name by using the PERSONAL_NAMES mapping table.
For example to change the following on outgoing email (via tcp_local):
From: Shane Hjorth <[email protected]>
to
From: What The <[email protected]>
1) Add the personalmap keyword to the tcp_local channel
2) Add the following mapping table to the mappings file:
PERSONAL_NAMES
*|[email protected] $YWhat$ The3) Rebuild config
./imsimta cnbuild; ./imsimta restart
This is all explained in the messaging server admin guide "Handling Personal Names in Address Header Lines".

Shane.

Setting Display Name for sent emails

Hi All,
I want to set a display name for sent emails. For example: when I send emails using [email protected] and after receivign this amil in my inbox it says from [email protected] Is there any way that I can show display name for this like Kartik <[email protected]>.
is there any API by which I can set this display name? Or this has to be done on mail server?
Any help would be appreciated!!
Thanks, Kartik

it asks for a attribute messageFrom and passes it to SMTPTransport. I have tried setting different values for messageFrom like
messageFrom=Test Email
messageFrom="Test Email"
but it didn't work for me. it expects a domain name there (even if its dummy) like
messageFrom=[email protected]
Can you tell me at which place InternetAddress is been called by SMTPTransport so that I can write my own impl for it.

Why can't we change display name?

Its very funny that we cant change display name and also we must have earlier feature which shows all the logged on members
Think about it
Thank you

In the past you had to wait a while for the caches to refresh anyway, now you need to wait an eternity or contact SAP.
The "display name" is no longer editable.
So if you are going to choose a pseudonym which is well known, make sure the guy is already dead and cannot get up to any more mischief or new scandals...

Dynamic display name of the sender

I have requirement like below:
After creating and executing any Agent/iBOt in OBIEE 11g, the Display Name of the Sender in the From address of email delivered to recipients is showing as "Administrator".
The user who is authenticated and authorized into the OBIEE also created an agent, he is asking that email should show his name in the From Address when it is delivered to the recipients.
I know why this is happening, I have provided the Display Name of Sender as "Administrator" while configuring the Agents at the Enterprise Manager Level.
What I am currently looking is, if there is any alternate solution to Dynamically display the name of the user who creates the Agent in the From address of the email when it is delivered to the recipients.
Thanks in advance

CHGRDBDIRE change rdb name for new installation.

In the installation guide, SAP advices us to change the *LOCAL relational database name to match the hostname.
However, currently my system already has an *LOCAL rdb name entry which follows the default machine/serial number name . The command using CHGRDBDIRE advised by SAP doesnt allow changing the name for *LOCAL entry.
The only method to change the name is to delete the default *LOCAL rdb name and recreate a new *LOCAL entry. Is it safe do to so ? IT contains the objects the QGPL and QTEMP schema now.

? I use by Webmail. How to change short name to @new.co.thThis behaviour can only be changed on a global level, not an individual account/address level.
A "short" email address of "aaa" is not RFC compliant therefore Sun Messaging Server fixes the address by adding a domain (in this case @old.co.th) to make the address valid.
The domain that is added is determined by the "defaulthost" setting in the MTA imta.cnf configuration file.
You should see a line that looks like the following in your configuration file:
defaults notices 1 2 4 7 copywarnpost copysendpost postheadonly noswitchchannel immnonurgent maxjobs 7 defaulthost old.co.th old.co.th loggingTo change the behaviour so that aaa => [email protected] you would change the above to:
defaults notices 1 2 4 7 copywarnpost copysendpost postheadonly noswitchchannel immnonurgent maxjobs 7 defaulthost new.co.th new.co.th loggingYou then need to recompile/restart the MTA for the change to become active e.g.
./imsimta cnbuild;./imsimta restart

ICHAT shows an IM name that is the sender that is not the name on the account. How do I change the name of the sender? Make sense?

On my IChat accountn when I send a message to someone it shows a name, for example.
John Doe (IM):
Hello
John doe is not my name. Mine for the sake of discussion will be
Jim Nabors
Why is John Doe showing up on my sent ICHAT texts when its not associated with my account?

Hi,
Can I check I have Understood this correctly ?
You are saying if You send the IM the Buddy sees the name "John Doe" instead of "Jim Nabors" ?
If this is an AIM login name there can be several reasons for this.
1) AIM allow Display names to be used.
Most people will remember setting this and tend to add Capitals and Spaces to their "Name"
If you Visit AIM Settings you can check your Display Name (if there is one)
Mine look like this when I have signed in
I have it set to display iChat Guru
2) iChat takes the naes in the Buddy List you have and combines that with the Address Book entries (an entry has to list a person's Screen Name)
That causes the iChat Buddy List to display their "Real Name" (or whatever you added as their "First Name, Last Name")
It could be that your Buddy calls you "John Doe" in their Address Book.
The only way you can be sure is to have them take a Screen Shot of the chat and send it to you.
(best to use some phrase or pic so you are certain is going to be you only)
Example Bonjour Chat with me at both ends.
I have the View Menu > Messages set to to display Names and Buddy Pics so the left hand "Buddy" shows my name as in the Address Book on the other computer (even though I use the same pic)
This leads on to what iChat shows you at your end.
In the header it can show your your "Handle" (Screen Name) or your Real Name as it appears in the address Book at the My Card entry.
The Address Book tends to have the name in the My Card of the person that created the Mac User Account.
This can mean that if your are logged on to the Mac as someone else that this will display at your End.
Only your Screen Name is sent to the other end.

John C., Please help if it's possible to restore the display name for Ken

John,
This is a personal private message, everyone else please ignore.
Dave Milbut has worked tirelessly trying to see if he could help me restore my user name as Ken Nielsen along with my little 5-letter password. I've only been able to log on here by making up a new moniker and password which was fortunate as most forums will not allow you to enter as a new user when you still have your old standard e-mail address. The process has been like swiss cheese: some things work, some have holes in them and are not really there (no cheese.)
Whatever you can do, even to the point of advising me to leave everything as it is, would be appreciated. It would be nice to have my old name back. I think others here have had to change their names also but one thing at a time.
You can contact Dave if you need the background history of his work on this over the past few weeks. Other than that, I'm out of ideas and need help.
Thanks,
Ken

here's what i got:
(mostly cut and past from an e-mail to ken)
i tried logging in with "Ken Nielsen" & "[redacted pw]" and get:
"Adobe ID and password do not match"
i clicked reset password... and get:
"Step 2: Look in your email.
We will send an email to the address associated with the ID.
Once you receive the email, click on the URL in the email. You will go to a web page to create a new password."
clicked SEND PASSWORD and get:
"Look in your email.
We have sent an email to the address associated with the ID. You will receive an email from Adobe in the next few minutes with instructions to reset your password. For security purposes, you must re-set your password within the next 24 hours.
If you don’t receive this email or if you have additional questions, please visit Customer Service for helpful tips, or to open a chat session during business hours.
For additional Acrobat Connect support click here."
ken says he has never changed the original pw, nor the email addy used associated w/the id (the same one we were communicating with). i asked him to double check his spam folder (it's a yahoo address). maybe john c. can check the ken id and make sure the email is correct so ken can reset his own pw? or can you - john - reset the pw for him?
any other questions, please let me know, i'm at aikodude at yahoo dot com, or post here or private message me.
ken, you might want to private message john with your yahoo email addy so he can update the id with the correct address, in case it got corrupted...
