I have googled for the solution but i'm finding it hard to narrow it down and get the search engine's to understand my question.
I need to try and tell our support engineers how to fix an issue I have - yes, great support!
I need to understand where the value that is displayed in the field "Changed by" is displayed from.
changed by is an option in Field chooser to display the last person's display name against the email they have changed or "flagged" in my specific case. This is used in a shared mailbox (additional mailbox) and not my primary.
I have looked all around my access I have to AD and my display name is set correctly but instead of displaying this, it displays the name of the mailbox I'm using when I edit an item. For other user's it's displaying their display name.
it may be that its a setting that needs changing to point it on my profile to my display name but i'm unsure where this field get's it's infomation.

I would post this up on the Server section of Overclockers forums (http://forums.overclockers.co.uk), plenty of AD and Exchange/Outlook guys on there

If you can't find it on google they probably can't either. That's the sort of problem you'd only know if you'd seen it before, I certainly haven't.

and I think that's my problem John, we have such a specific task that uses this function that 99/100 techs won't have even seen this field.

No MS gold partner or anything that you can get a support call, they guys normally really know their shit.
Depends how vital it is to solve I suppose.

Not sure on any MS Partner stuff, Plenty of support people straight out of the uni's etc bragging about their MS certificates and all that BS, but in the real world with these silly issues it all goes to pot.
I'll see if an old 3rd line engineer still answer's to his emails tomorrow and if not then Overclockers it is...

MS certificates mean fuck all ( i'm MCITP: Enterprise Admin  )
It's that bad it took me 2 tries to remember what it actually was.

I believe they run 2000 but it has recently been migrated to a new supplier so I'm unsure.

If you can find out your Exchange version i can look into it for you. Although if it is 2000, we don't have any boxes left out there now. We refuse to support anything older than 2003.
