XADM: Adding Recipients To a Form May Change Display Name To Distinguished Name

Article ID: 188420

Article Last Modified on 10/28/2006



APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Standard Edition



This article was previously published under Q188420

SYMPTOMS

An application such as Electronic Forms Designer uses MAPI to resolve a list of display names. If you add names to a form and some of the names have already been resolved during a previous instance, the display names that had been previously resolved will have their display name changed to the internal Microsoft Exchange Server distinguished name. A display name may look like the following:

James Smith


After you add a new name to the form, a distinguished name for this fictitious user will look like the following:

   =EX:/p=YourPrmd/ou=YourOrgUnit/cn=Recipients/cn=SmithJ
                

CAUSE

The distinguished name for the addressee was erroneously being saved to the display name property.


RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server version 5.5. For more information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
