You might look at $UseFriendlyFrom in RT_Config.pm (of course changes should
be made in RT_SiteConfig.pm)

 Hi List,

 We have just upgraded from RT 3.6.7 to 3.8.8.

 The first thing we noticed is that RT now uses the Real Name variable to
 show who posted comments/replies into a ticket, instead of the Username
 variable, which we were previously used too.

 In our case, all staff members Real Names are set to our company name, so
 after the upgrade we are unable to tell which staff member posted a
 comment/reply because they are all listed as our company name. The only
 reason we have our Real Names set to our company name, is because we want
 our staff members names to remain anonymous in Correspondence to customers.

 I have no problem changing our Real Names to our individual names, and
 that will fix part of the problem because we will then be able to see
 internally which staff member has updated a ticket, however doing that will
 then mean that when we send Correspondence to customers, they will see the
 staff members Real Name in the FROM field (eg John Citizen via RT).

 So I believe as well as changing our Real Names to our actual real names,
 I am also going to need to mofify the correspdance template, and some how
 get it to strip out our Real Name in the FROM field, and replace it with our
 company name.

 The problem I am having is I cannot find documentation on how I could do
 this.

 If someone could please point me in the right direction that would be much
 appreciated.
