Hello Phillip,
Thanks for posting in our newsgroup and also for Lanwench's input.
I'd like to give you the following information for your reference..
After you applied the hotfix KB 888416, the GAL will not be affected. The
Address Book still display the Display Name under the General tab.
After you install the hotfix, for internal emails, nothing changed. We can
see the Display Name. For external
emails, we will see the Simple Display Name for Sender. Only if the Simple
Display Name has been configured, the Information Store will use it.
Otherwise, it will use Full Display Name.
One thing needs to mention:
If there are internal users in the To line of the external emails, the
Display Name won't change to Simple Display Name. (In one word, the feature
only change the display name for Sender, not Recipients
Hope the information helps.
If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Best regards,
Robert Li(MSFT)

<Hi,
<
<Thanks for the reply. I certainly do have a test lab, unfortunately not
one
<that includes a live internet connection or other sort of test environment
<for Internet Mail Delivery. My understanding of the Simple Display name
<setting is that Exchange would still use the normal Display Name for
<internally delivered emails.
<
<As far as why we would only offer this to a few users, it's because only a
<few users have complained about it. Changing "lastname first" to
"firstname
<first" for ALL users would require much more effort on my part to get
<approval to change.
<
<Anyone else have an idea of the expected behavior of "Use Simple Display
<Name" where only some users have the attribute populated?
<
<Thanks,
<Phillip
