Set postfix From header equal to "Full Name"

Dinip

Hello,

I’m using a mailcow instance to host a company email server. Most of the users, use Outlook on their computers and gmail/outlook app on mobile.
Is there any way to force postfix to set the From: Username to be the one that is defined by me on the mailbox “Full name” field? I want all the emails to follow a similar “standard” but some users don’t set the name on their devices and it ends up to “name@domain.tld” but I want the person’s name to appear instead.
Is this possible?

Thanks

Did you ever find a solution for this? I am having the same issue and it’s a pain to get everyone to enter their correct information in Outlook.

Maybe you could run a script per group policy which changes their “Display Name”
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Profiles\PROFILENAME\9375CFF0413111d3B88A00104B2A6676\00000002
“Display Name” is a string.

you could read the proper name from active directory, which should be in:
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\Identity\ADUserDisplayName
