same person, different name

[HP]

Hi,

I receive incoming mails from the same colleague Frank Johnson but from his
different accounts.
In my inbox p. e.
(e-mail address removed) (sent from work)
(e-mail address removed) (sent from home)
(e-mail address removed) (sent from else)
(e-mail address removed) (sent from webmail work)
etc.

Is there a way to give them p.e. an alias so all his incoming mails are
together when sorting my inbox on From?

Thanks, HP

The answer that you got in the Dutch newsgroups also applies to the English
version.

Hi,

reasoning?

You can always make a suggestion of course. If it ever gets implemented is
another question. At least don't expect it to show up in Outlook 2010.

I'd personally would call it a valid request. I can understand why you would
want to group based on a contact as a whole and not just a display name.
Another valid point to have it is to overrule the display name of the
sender. Sometimes these are not how you would like to recognize the person.

For instance, while your granddad of course sends out with his name as the
display name, you might prefer to receive it with a display name of
"Granddad". The same is true with certain customers; instead of showing
their display name, you might want to receive it with a display name of
their company.

As long as you can make a good "business case" for it, its worth suggesting
(you can suggest anything, but the ones that make good business sense have a
better chance of being considered.)

At the very least, it would be nice if they grouped by contact - i.e., if
the address is on the persons contact, the message grouped with messages
sent using other addresses. (Activities does it already, but its nice to
have it in views too.)

I trust that the above emails are fake. If not, Frank and Amy can look
forward to A LOT of spam thanks to you.

I don't think that spammers dig into NNTP-Posting bodies. A "Header
Overview" is quicker, more productive than an entire message download. I use
a working email address in the "Reply-To" field, which, like bodies, is not
normally included in a "Header Overview". I've never received spam, though
some MS targeting viruses used to scarf anything with an "@" from these
groups.
