Sending email via Lotus Notes

Does anyone have any examples of sending e-mail through Lotus Notes via forms 6i? I have searched the forum and there seems to be very few items on Lotus Notes.
Thanks in advance.
Jeff

A simple way is the host-command.
The command-string is "start mailto:address?body='Text'&subject='Text"
The length of host-string is limited.
Text_io can help: Create the cmd-file and then start it thru the host-command.
Also simple: Create a html-file x.html and start this via host(Start x.html')
I am interested und this topic, too, because I can't attach files with this simple methods.

Send mails via Lotus Notes using VFP

Hi all,
I have an VFP application which is allowing send emails from Lotus Notes. Currently it sends mails from the default account in Lotus notes. But now there is a requirement as follows.
An email address can be defined from our application. Say
[email protected] Lotus notes has been configured with two mail accounts such as
[email protected] and [email protected] and the default email is
[email protected] Now we have to send emails from our application with
[email protected] email address. Not the default email address.
To do this we have to read all email accounts configured in Lotus Notes using VFP. And look for the email address
[email protected] and mail should be sent with that account. Can anybody guide me how to do this using VFP? Thanks.
Best Regards,

This is actually a Notes question. You need to find out whether the Notes automation server provides what you need and how to do it.

Java program to send email from lotus notes

Hello,
Please anyone suggest me how to send email from lotus notes using java.
Thanks.

I don't understand the question. Are you asking:
1. How do I send e-mail from Lotus notes manually? Press the Send button.
2. How do I send e-mail from Java? Look into the Java Mail API. Doesn't require Lotus Notes (or any other e-mail client, for that matter).
3. How do I send e-mail to a Lotus Notes address? Just send e-mail to the address (see # 2 above). Nothing special required just because the recipient uses Lotus Notes. FYI: I use Lotus Notes (though I hate it) because it's our company's standard & have written Java apps that send e-mails to Notes. The only time I've had to be aware the recipient was a Notes client was when I was sending HTML formatted messages; then I had to pay attention to the limitations of Notes' brain dead HTML parser.

Send email to lotus notes

Dear All,
First of all I don't know if this is the correct forum but I have not seen a specific forum for oracle 8 so I posted the message in this forum.
I have stored into a table Lotus Notes address and messages.
I want to schedule a job on Oracle Server that send messages to a Lotus Notes Server.
Lotus Notes version is 4.6.x and Oracle database is 8.0.5 EE.
Any suggestion are welcome.
Bye

Hi,
If you want to be able to send email to the distribution list in Lotus Notes from SharePoint, you
can set the SMTP service address of Lotus Notes server in Central Administration->System Settings->Configure Outgoing email settings->Outbound SMTP Server.
And you need to set the Lotus Notes to accept anonymous email.
Here are some similar threads for you to take a look:

Send Emails Through Lotus Notes

Dear Experts..,
I am developing an object in which I have to send mails to the Users through Lotus Notes.
The scenario is that..
1. Smartforms has to me created for different cases.
2. The corresponding Smartform has to be called based on the Case and it has to be populated with values.
3. Then the Smartform output has to be converted to HTML Format.
4. It has to be sent to Lotus notes along with "mail id" and "relevant Subject".
5. Then I have to receive a acknowledgement from Lotus Notes about the successful delivery of the mail.
Please explain me how to send the converted Smartform to the users email id (this mail id is a external mail id) through Lotus Notes.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Naveen Kumar G

Dear Experts..,
I am able to do up to the conversion of the Smartform.
The remaining is where I got messed.
I am using a FM 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1'...., but this will send a mail directly.. not through Lotus Notes.
But I was given a requirement like, I have to use Lotus Notes.
Please help me in this regard.
Thank you,
Naveen Kumar G

When trying to send mail via Lotus Notes webmail, mail does not get send

Firefox 4.01, XUL-manager installed.
Logged in to corporate webmail, can see mails etc. I can create a mail (new, reply, etc.) but when I hit the send button, I get a popup asking if a copy needs to be archived. no matter if I say yes or no, the mail does not get send. Also saving as draft does not work.

Hi,
yes smtp is a standard and I think you could use this with almost every smtp server.
If your smtp server doesn't require authentication you can access it without an authenticator
I think...
Best regards,

Sending an email from Lotus Notes release 5.0.4a

I need to write java code for sending an email from Lotus Notes release 5.0.4a.
Initially, I tried using Lotus Domino Toolkit for java, but the current release, "Lotus Domino ToolKit for Java/Corba release 5.0.8" is not compatible with the notes client/server we are using(5.0.4a).
Now, I am trying to use "Lotus Domino Toolkit 2.1" which supports notes version 5.0.3 and higher, but I couldnot find out how to use it to send email.
Is there are other way in which we can connect to Lotus Notes for sending email. I cannot use SMTP as the Lotus Notes administrator is afraid of security issues so there is no possibility that I can connect to Domino server using java mail API by enabling SMTP on the Domino server.
I would be thankful if somebody can help me to do this.

First off - This is very "off topic"
The Domino SMTP server is not hard to lock down. Any Notes Admin worth his/her salt should know how to do it. Try to persuade them to run the SMTP stuff using name and password authentication only, or restrict access to an IP address range. This is all easy stuff.
Otherwise DIIOP/CORBA is one way to go. If your toolkit jar files don't work with the server then try using the ones on the server. Look in %noteshome%\data\domino\java for the ncso.jar file.
This works for me on an AS/400 java VM to WinNT/Linux Domino servers of various versions.
How to create an email using this method is again not difficult. All you really need is a blank database template. You have to create a document with certain fields in it (all documented) and then save it. That's all there is to it.
Word of warning DIIOP is not very rapid and careless coding can create problems. Ensure that once you have finished a session you make sure you close it else you will have continual connection problems.
Try searching around the domino/notes groups on how to actually do this.

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas?

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas? No problems with the set up previously to this.

Go to Mail Preferences- Accounts and confirm you are providing Gmail what they require to send and receive mail. And DON'T specify Secure Socket Layer. Some mail accts don't like SSL
Good Luck to you.

Cannot send email via Hotmail through port 587 with Secure Connection (SSL) set

Something is blocking my attempts to send email (with Outlook Express) via my hotmail.com account. The error I receive is as follows:
Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Account: 'Hotmail', Server: 'smtp.live.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 587, Secure(SSL): Yes, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F
When Hotmail.com first changed over to a POP3 server (Sept 2009), I could send emails through them using port 587, which they require. But then something happened, with no changes on my part, to disable my ability to send.
I have checked and rechecked my Outlook Express account settings. I can send email through another third-party mail account (at 1&1 Internet.com) using port 587, which does not require setting SSL to yes. I can also ping the Hotmail SMTP server via port 587 and receive a response from it.
I connect to Verizon DSL via a Westell 327W modem/router. Clearly it is not blocking port 587 without SSL. Does it have the capability to block SSL traffic? Or is the Verizon server the culprit, not allowing emails to be sent via Hotmail.com?
Two different computers on my LAN have the same problem sending emails via Hotmail.com. I have tried everything the Hotmail people have suggested; at this point they think it is an ISP problem, hence this post. This problem doesn't make sense to me and is driving me crazy. Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks.

You can still have your reply address set to your hotmail address. And you don't have to really remember to do anything. Configure your client for the HOTMAIL account with Verizon's outgoing server. It will automatically send via Verizon. You don't reveal your verizon.net address, you are just using their server to transmit.

After downloading Firefox 4, I could get to everything , including 2 or my 3 email accounts. But after signing into my work email at Lotus Notes, my mail would not appear !! Why?

There was no problems with downloading Firefox 4 . I had no problem getting to my mail on bellsouth(Yahoo) or netscape(AOL) but when I signed successfully to my work email on Lotus Notes..my inbox appeared but no mail appeared. I went to Lotus Notes via Explorer and Chrome and did NOT suffer the same result. Sometimes a box appeared saying some sort of error was at fault and sometimes the screen just froze up ?WHY??

Maybe the "Remote XUL Manager" add-on mentioned in these threads will help?

Offline Approvals via Lotus Notes

We are currently implementing SRM 7.0.
We have configured off line approvals and the email content is sent correctly to Lotus Notes.
When the user clicks "Approve" in Lotus Notes, the approval email is not automatically sent to SRM. The user is presented with a second screen that requires them to press the "Send" button in Lotus Notes.
We have a few questions:
Is this the standard function? If yes, can this behavior be changed?
If this behaior cannot be changed, can we edit/add text to the blank Lotus Notes email?
Thanks!

Hi,
It depends on how email client handles the mailto action in HTML form.
Outlook shows dialog box. I think this is related with some security setting in email client side.

Gmail taking ages to send email via mail app

I bought a MacBook air yesterday and set up my gmail account on the mail app. Everything seemed to be working okay at first but now it's takkng at least five minutes to send a plain text email, one email I tried sending last night didn't send until this morning! I tried changing the SSL port to 25, 465 and 587 not only do they not work but then it stops my mail from moving into the folders or trash, they move and then go back to my inbox.
Please help!

When I am in a hotel out of town or overseas- or just anywhere where I don't have my home ISP - how can I not only RECEIVE but also SEND eMail via my Mail program?
If your ISP is like mine, it authenticates you for outgoing e-mail by being able to determine that you're accessing the Internet from within their network. If your ISP is so configured, they'll offer the ability to authenticate to their SMTP server with a password. My ISP does not.
However, MobileMe does provide its own authenticating SMTP server that you should be able to use from anywhere. Try an SMTP server of smtp.mac.com (smtp.me.com will probably also work) with settings of "Use default ports", "Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)", and "Authentication" by password, your "User Name" the part of your MobileMe ID before the "at" sign, and your password your MobileMe password.
For non-MobileMe outgoing e-mail, you'll need to locate an SMTP server that you can use.
Also: Anyway to attach more than 1 file (say photo) at a time using MobileMe and my mail account? For 22 small photos do I have to hit attach each time? I can't seem to select the folder they are in and get all 22 to attach...
I haven't tried that, but I would expect to have to attach them one at a time.

One more time, iCloud mail accounts are .me, .mac and .icloud. New ones are only .icloud.
iCloud mail is a standard Imap account that can be used with any mail client in existence. But You are talking about the ability to automatically setup an iCloud account in mail, which did not exist until 10.7.2.
You can use password or token authentification with iCloud mail (in Mail) it is your choice.
Set the account manually, set it as Imap, use imap.mail.me.com (no P number) for the incoming email and smtp.mail.me.com as the outgoing server.
The full settings (ports and security) are here. Use them and it will work, regardless of domain (mac, me and icloud addresses all use the same settings.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
Server name: imap.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
Port: 993
Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
Port: 587
SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
Password: Your iCloud password
Note: If you receive errors using SSL, try using TLS instead. SSL is required for both IMAP and SMTP connection with iCloud. POP is not supported by iCloud.
For more information on how to use this information with your email application, consult your application's documentation.
