Good afternoon, Lately I've found a great deal of value in automating emails for my report outputs. In my SAS programs, I have been specifying the from=('first.last@domain.com'), and therefore the automated emails show up as from first.last@domain.com. However, within our company outlook defaults, emails are sorted as "LastName, FirstName". When a business user searches for one of my reports, they do not appear sorted with my regular emails because of the difference in displayed names. This prompts the user to ask me to resend my report to them, or they don't even realize I already sent the ad-hoc report. After researching the issue, I found that you can specify a display name by putting the email address in angle brackets (ref1 below). However, if I use Last, First with a comma, the first name is ignored and the email comes from LastName only. from = ('Last, First <first.last@domain.com>') ----> Email shows up from "Last" I've tried other variations of nested quotes with no luck, such as from = ('"Last, First" <first.last@domain.com>') Any ideas how I can get the email send to properly display as "Last, First" within outlook? I'm using outlook 2010 32-bit, SAS EG 7.1 HF1, sas server 9.4 ref1 - filename statement reference http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/lestmtsref/63323/HTML/default/viewer.htm#n0ig2krarrz6vtn1aw9zzvtez4qo.htm
