[MM3-users] Re: Mailman3 is wrongly display name a list member

Thank you, Mark. I have Postorius Version 1.3.4 I see no 'Users' in Postorius, but I do see it in Django.

I'll assume that my Postorius is out of date and will take steps to update it.

Yours,

Allan

A user has a user record and one or more address records. Each of these 
has a display name. Removing users from lists does not remove these records.


If you have recent Postorius, you should have a `users` item at the top 
of Postorius pages. Go there, find the user and click "Manage". You can 
change Display Name there.

Otherwise, in `mailman shell` for example
```
 >>> usr = getUtility(IUserManager).get_user('user@example.com')
 >>> usr.display_name = 'First Last'
 >>> for adr in usr.addresses:
...     adr.display_name = 'First Last'
...
 >>> commit()
```
