Silly thought:  Why not just change the display names for the ORG and
SITE instead of jumping though hoops?

I agree, Move Server Wizard is the tool that you need to preform this,
but
take a CSV export of all your accounts using all the headers available
and
a offline backup copy of the DB's. (MSW will create all these CSV files
for you anyway i.e. one for DL's, users, CR's and all people who have a
secondarty proxy addresses).  once the MSW is done, just manually import
these CSV files.  THe DL's will need to be modified abit to match the
new
org and just add the old x500 addresses so that old mail doesnt bounce
back.

Hope this helps.
