Using Ex5.5 you cannot change the fields that are shown in the address book
list. Sorry.
However, I can't see why the personnel information is that bad - surely they
other people can't do anything with it????

Um, Employee ID is not personal information (unless HR was stupid enough to
use the SSN), it is corporate information. In fact, since it is one of the
few unique pieces of information that is available, we use it on everything
from ID badges to user profiles in our travel department to .....well I
could tell you other things, but then I'd have to kill you.
You have a policy in place (UID = NT = Alias). Stand behind the policy and
tell them too bad, so sad. Some things are worth accommodating so that you
can provide a positive user experience. This is not one of them.
You might be able to control the display under
org/site/configuration/addressing/details templates/<insert you code page
here>.

Subject: Changing Address Book Default Columns
How can the Address Book default columns be changed so users cannot view the
alias?
The full story:)
In Outlook 98 Address Book, the 'alias field' is visible to users (if they
maximise window or scroll right).
Our NT Username = user's unique staff number = mailbox alias.
Seemed a good idea, allows direct mail to staff number....without an extra
process.
Very useful.......but some users have complained to HR director at this
personal info being easily available to all other staff.
We're Exch 5.5 SP4, clients using mostly Outlook 98.
You can:
add/remove columns displayed in ExchAdmin View of recipients (via
View/Columns).
or
change fields/layout of the Mailbox Properties Window displayed in Address
Book. (via ExchAdmin Config/Addressing Templates/Details -Mailbox)
or
Use 'Address Book Views' in ExchAdmin, but these seem to control 'sets of
users displayed' (eg filtered so Group A cannot see Group B's details) and
not which fields display.
Removing/hiding an Address Book View field seems a simple requirement to my
Director but we can't find how to do it. I've searched
Help/TechNet/Web/Exchange Discussions Archive.
Have I missed something obvious.....
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Fiona
