TMGR: Change of Resource Name Doesn't Change Resource's E- mail (159632)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Team Manager

This article was previously published under Q159632

SYMPTOMS

In Team Manager, if you change a resource's name, the resource's e-mail name is not changed.

WORKAROUND

If you change a resource's information and must use an e-mail name different from the original e-mail name, you must manually change the e-mail name.

MORE INFORMATION

After a resource is created in Team Manager, an e-mail name is either supplied or found through the e-mail client's address book. If the resource's name is changed at some time, this change does not result in a change in the e-mail name. This is because of an assumption that the resource in question is still the same person, but the name for that same resource has changed. If a resource's name is being changed and updates are to be sent to an e-mail name other than what was originally used, you must change the e-mail name manually in the E-mail Name field.
