    If you are used to using Eudora, Outlook, Exchange, or Outlook Express, you are in for a hell of a time if you use the Lotus Notes mail client. These behaviors existed since before the Domino Suite in 1998, and still have not been rectified.


    1.) Meetings and the Calendar. Once you get a meeting notice, it is maintained in your own personal calendar. You need so save the notices you get, OTHERWISE YOU LOSE THE CALENDAR ENTRY! Similarly, rescheduling is a real nightmare. Also, if you inadvertently click "Respond" on a meeting information notice, you CANNOT CLOSE IT!

    2.) Sent items. You cannot move sent items around to other folders and preserve them like mail messages. Why must I treat my own mail messages differently from any other?

    3.) Reply with or without history. I do not care! Do not give me any more buttons. Let me click Reply or Reply to all and then chop what I want or do not want. I find that excluding the context of a message but leaving the subject to be irrelevant to a discussion.

    When you open a meeting notice, and then accidently click Request Infomation, you CANNOT CLOSE IT. You are forced to send the request unless you crash out of Notes.

    Changing the letterhead for your e-mail in Lotus Notes 6

    Here is a tip for when you get Lotus notes 6:

    Changing the letterhead on your messages
    From a list of letterhead graphics that Notes supplies, you can select a graphic to appear as letterhead at the top of your messages.

    1. Open your mail database.

    2. From the menu, choose Actions - Tools - Preferences.

    3. Click the Letterhead tab.

    4. Select a graphic. To use no letterhead, choose Plain Text.

    5. Click OK.

    If you are the meeting organizer and your disk gets rebuilt, you lose all your meetings even if you get your other mail folders back! Then you have to reschedule. Unfortunately, all your original attendees still have their local calendar entries! Now you will end up either double booking if you remember. Or you will see your attendees time blocked out where you had scheduled the meeting. WHAT A PAIN!

    I Hate Lotus Notes Calendar! HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT!

    When trying to follow a thread, it would be nice to be able to sort on the subject and cleverly handle the RE: FWD: tags and so forth.
