Default Change my contact display as name-but?

Hi,

In contacts, Outlook '07, Ive changed the field for "display as" from e-mail
address to my preferred name for contacts.
However, now, when contacts send me e-mails; it still shows their e-mail
instead of the display name.
Am I missing something?

Jeff
Happy Holidays, to all! :-)

What you see in a received message is controlled by the sender of that
message, not any settings you have on your PC.
