Hi all,
I am using Outlook 2003 and I have hundreds of Contacts. I occasionally get email and can only see their email address. Is there any way I can see their Contact List name easily when I receive the email? I do not want to go through hundreds of contact email addresses to see who is actually sending the email. I can't always remember or put a person's name to an email address.
Thanks.
The "sender" is the person who controls how their name is displayed when emails arrive.
If the sender's e-mail address is already in your Contacts, you could just use the Advanced Search function to search the Contacts for the e-mail address.
So without actually searching for the email address there is no shortcut to see who is sending the email?
If the sender did not set up their e-mail program to include their name, then no, there isn't any way to find out. The information wasn't included when the message was sent.
