iPhone + Correct Name?

[joerg.battermann]

Hey there,

I got my iPhone 3g and set it up to run with my Hosted Zimbra Server (5.0.7 as far as I know).. but when sending out e-mails it only shows 'jb' as my name (e-mail addy is jb@...) & not my real name. Hrm.. now why is that? I've checked whether I can change that somewhere on the iPhone in General.. but my real/full name is used all over the place... and having a look at the Zimbra Admin page etc shows my proper name, too.

Am I missing something?

i have also noticed this on hosted 5.0.8

my name shows up as name@company.com, instead of my real name.

i have tried to force a display name by unchecking "auto" in the zimbra admin area, but this does nothing.

A lot of issues have been fixed in 5.0.9 and 5.0.10 so I would recommend upgrading to the latest release of ZCS. If you are using a hosted service then I would ask when they plan to upgrade.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. My host is upgrading on the 1st Nov.
Do you know if this bug is fixed the lastest version?

Regards,

Les

No, not fixed in 5.0.10, and not yet slated for 5.0.11, either. You(r hoster) can vote for the bug.
