Hello Council of Wisdom, today's challenge is as follows:

I've got a script that uses Outlook to resolve User ID's. Each employee at our company has such an ID (e.g. e630485), that when resolved in Outlook returns the full name (i.e. "Smith, John"), was wondering if there's an easy way through OLE to grab the equivalent of Right-Click, Properties on such a name. Thanks in advance! 
my $Outlook = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject( $Class );
if ( ! $Outlook )
{
    printf "Please open Outlook and try again!\n";
    exit(0);
}

my $email = $Outlook->CreateItem(0);

my $rcpt = $email->Recipients->Add($ARGV[0]);
$rcpt->Resolve();
my $testname = $rcpt->Name();
print "$testname\n";
