Hi,

user 'leonard' on IRC reported that when you send a message via  
Horde_ActiveSync,
the from field of the message contains just the email address.
This is a limitation of the protocol.

Other ActiveSync implementations like the one from Google or Outlook  
seem to look up the user on the server side and add the full name to  
the email address. Could we do the same?

Cheers,
Thomas
