Gmail Display Name Using Senders Nickname

Just had an embarrassing moment.  On my GF phone she has a nickname for me instead of my name in my contact info.
Now when she sends email this Nickname appears on the To line on all outgoing messages.  Problem is when she emails other folks and cc me, like business folks in this situation, the display name appears as my nickname not my real name. How do one avoid this?
Also, it looks like any correspondence that I am having with these folks the display name is this nickname.  How does one go about fixing this?

What happens is she adds your contact by typing your name instead of "smoochieface"? Does she have your real name in her contacts? She can have your real name and also your nickname (it's an additional field). What happens if she turns off Prefer Short Name under Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>Short Names?

  • How can I get Sender Display Name using Get-MessageTrackingLog?

    Hi, could you please help me. We have got a monitoring system at work which monitors some devices, so if something wrong happening with these devices email is sent from MASTER email (Customer Name <[email protected]>) to us. I'm trying to get a list
    of all emails of that monitoring mailbox using PoweShell command
    Get-MessageTrackingLog and export them to CSV file. In the end of the day I need CSV file with 3 columns: TimeStamp, MessageSubject and SenderDisplayName! Yes, I need Sender Display Name cause all emails are sent from one MASTER email
    (Customer Name <[email protected]>) and only difference between them is sender Display Name which is cexactly what I need.   
    This is the code I'm using:
    Get-MessageTrackingLog -EventId Receive | Select Timestamp, MessageSubject, Sender | Export-CSV C:\NagiosAlerts.csv
    –NoTypeInformation
    So how can I get sender Display Name(Customer Name) using Get-MessageTrackingLog insted of Sender email (<[email protected]>)? 

    The DisplayName is not recorded in the Logs only the EmailAddresses are so there Is nothing you can do with Message Tracking to get this the way you want. You need to look at another property may soureIP or include something in the Subject
    of the Email (eg a customerId in the Subject is a much better option) to give you some differentiation. Otherwise you need to access the Email directly from the Mailbox it was sent to and then extract the DisplayName from the message (or use a journaling
    on those emails etc)

  • Tomcat web.xml "display-name" using flex.messaging.MessageBrokerServlet

           Hello,
    When my web application starts with the BlazeDS servlet flex.messaging.MessageBrokerServlet defined in the web.xml we have an error because in the display-name defined at top level in web.xml we have some text containing character ':'. The error is traced to inside the function
             flex.management.BaseControl.getObjectName()
    Which gets the object name, and this function calls
       BaseControl.getApplicationId()
    which finally calls
    ServletConfig.getServletContext().getServletContextName()
    This will return or display-name from the web.xml with all  it's text. This text contains among other characters the character ':'.  We use this tag for the display in the Tomcat Manager to see version  number and other of deployed project.
    After retrieving this name it is appended in the getObjectName() function to a buffer, this StringBuffer that already contains flex.runtime. and  now this name is appended (still with all that we are using for Tomcat  Manager with ':' character and other). After the name, other things are  appended. Our problem is that, after constructing this StringBuffer an instance of javax.management.ObjectName is created. In it's constructor it takes a String name  as input. This String is parsed in base of characters ':', '*', '?',  '\n' and so on, and since we have some of these characters in our  display-name it all goes wrong.
       My question is, if this is a bug, a limitation or if it is documented that using flex.messaging.MessageBrokerServlet we can not use certain characters in the display-name of the web.xml?

  • Displaying Name using ID

    hi friends
    my problem is i want to display name by using the id.
    The id is being populated by a query in the user parameter.
    In the Main Query I got the select statement as "SELECT CLIENT_ID,CLIENT_NAME FROM CLIENT
    WHERE CLIENT_ID =:PARAM_CLIENT_ID"
    At Runtime the user wants to see the parameters Printed on the report.
    So In layout editor after the layout is printed i Selected the outermost frame and using Down Arrow key i dragged it down.
    Then putting a TEXTBOX above i set the properties-->SOURCE--> "CLIENT_NAME".
    But it gives me the error saying
    "Field F_Name references Column Client_Name at a frequency below its group."
    Can anybody give a SOLUTION how to print client_name at the place mentioned in the layout editor.
    Many Many thanks in Advance.
    null

    Hi Ravi,
    You can create a formula column in the Datamodel in which you return the client_name
    based on the parameter.
    Then in your layoutmodel, in the created field set the source to the Formula column.
    That should do it...

  • How can I customise Thunderbird message columns to show sender raw address (not display name) and the "Received for" email address that was used to reach me?

    I find it increasingly important to be able to see a sender's actual email address rather than just display name, as they usually don't show a company name - which a domain always would. Is there a way to customise settings/write a script/tweak files to add raw email & domain name columns? When dealing with a number of people at the same company it is hard to order or glance through a list of emails to find them. I also know 2 people with the same name at different companies and it is impossible to distinguish!
    Secondly, as a related column addition, since a number of email aliases reach me it would be useful to have a column to show the "Received..for" part of the message source which reveals the actual email used in the To/CC/BCC which led to me. Again can this be tweaked or scripted?
    I have programming experience but have not made add-ons and would be open to a suggestion which involves creating a custom add-on if adding columns with custom values is possible that way.
    Best Regards,
    Drew

    Extended message headers can be searched from Edit/Find/Search Messages, or the folder context menu, by adding custom headers to the search criteria. So, you might be able to create a search on specific properties of a message.
    The method of adding custom headers to searches is the same as the one described here for filters:

  • Is it possible to have 2 display names (one for internal use; the other for external use) in Active Directory?

    The idea:
    When communicating amongst our own staff via email we'd like to see our display names in this format:
    Firstname Lastname (Division/Department/Branch/Unit)
    Whereas, when we send emails to people outside the company, we'd like to be seen as:
    Firstname Lastname (Company Name)
    Is this technically possible?
    Regards,
    Anthony

    Please read about Exchange Simple Display Name if you are using Exchange in your environment. It should be suitable for your needs, but as far I know not every Exchange version support it.
    In Exchange 2003 this Simple Display Name was at Advanced tab of user, but now..
    With Exchange 2013, SimpleDisplayName is configured using Exchange Management Shell (EMS)
    Example:
    Set-Mailbox ALIAS -SimpleDisplayName $True
    ..and as with Exchange 2007/2010, you will need to enable UseSimpleDisplayName on RemoteDomain.

  • 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?

  • ERROR ITMS-9000 "The bundle uses a bundle name or display name..." when uploading to iTunesConnect

    I'm receiving the error "ERROR ITMS-9000 "The bundle uses a bundle name or display name associated with an Apple app." when uploading to iTunesConnect.
    Version 1.0 or our app is currently on the App store, an I'm trying to upload a version 1.1.
    I'm trying to change the name of the app from "Augsburg Now" to "Augsburg Gallery".
    I changed the name in the App ID on developer.apple.com to "Augsburg Gallery, but left the ID as edu.augsburg.augsburgnow
    I generated new Development and Distribution provisioning profiles, since the App ID name had changed.
    In DPS App Builder, I changed the App name to "Gallery", and the Title (library view) in DPS App Builder to "Augsburg Gallery", and then created a new binary.
    I changed the App Name in iTunes connect to "Augsburg Gallery"
    I don't see the problem, since I left the bundle id, app id, etc. all unchanged.
    Any ideas?

    It sounds like you did everything right, Keith. I just did a similar thing recently to change my app name from "Digital Publishing Suite Tips" to "DPS Tips," so I know it's possible. In iTunes Connect, you submitted the app as a new version, not as a new app, right?
    I would try building a new app and submitting it again.

  • Select distinct using LINQ and bound to a dropdown list with id and display name

    Hi,
    On one of my sharepoint page, I want to populate dropdown list with countries, namely
    <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCountry" runat ="server"></asp:DropDownList>
    In the code, I use LINQ:
     var country = (from p in dc.ProvCountries
                                   select p.country_code ).Distinct();
                ddlCountry.DataSource = country;
                    ddlCountry.DataBind();
    I want the country_code to be  the ID, while the country_name will be the display name in the dropdown, how can that be done?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Need to get IRole object using Roles Display Name

    Hi,
    I need to get IRole object using Roles Display Name. I had the below code in EP 2004 SP12 and it works. But the same code dont work in EP 2004s SP13
    user = request.getUser();
    profile = request.getComponentContext().getProfile();     
    String strRoles = profile.getProperty("Roles");
    String strRole[] = strRoles.split(",");
    IRoleFactory roleFactory = UMFactory.getRoleFactory();
    String roleUniqueId = null;
    int i = 0;
    boolean flagRedirect = false;
    for(i = 0; i < strRole.length; i++){
         try
              com.sap.security.api.IRole role = roleFactory.getRoleByUniqueName(strRole<i>);
              roleUniqueId = role.getUniqueID();
              if(!user.isMemberOfRole(roleUniqueId, true))
                   continue;
              flagRedirect = true;                    
              break;
         catch(UMException ex)
         catch(IOException ex)
    if(!flagRedirect){
    Where property Roles will have comma separated roles display names like "com.ABC.ortho_reports,com.ABC.lawns_ortho_reports,com.ABC.executive_reports"
    Please advise.

    Thanks Mrudula for the response. Sorry for the delay in responding.
    I get UMEException with the message "Role with uniqueName com.ABC.general not found"
    But it works fine if i specify Role unique role (like pcd:portal_content/com.abc.Marketing_Workbench/com.abc.Roles/com.abc.general).
    We are in the process of upgrading Portal environment from EP6.0 SP12 to EP7.0 SP13. Above scenario works fine in the older environment.

  • Display current page name using API ?

    I want to display the current page name using a PL/SQL API. I can get it using smart text - current page item, but I need to get it programmatically using a procedure. Which one? What variable? If I need to pass values in, where do I get them?
    Thanks,
    John

    You can use wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('_pageid','a') in a pl/sql item or UI template to get the value of the current page id. You can then use the page id to look up page attributes in the WWSBR_ALL_FOLDERS view. In a portlet, you have to use the reference_path instead of the 'a' as the second parameter.
    Please note that is is an undocumented use of this API and is not guaranteed to work in future releases. However, it does work in 9.0.2 and 9.0.2.6. WWSBR_ALL_FOLDERS is not officially supported until the 9.0.2.6 version.

    You should be able to get it directly as dCollectionName, but might have to execute a query to fill in the result set first: select dCollectionName from COLLECTIONS where DCOLLECTIONID = ?
