Lotus Notes 7 Email Instructions
Lotus Notes 7 is a software platform from IBM that features email and calendar tools and serves as the client application used to access Lotus Domino server resources. Lotus Notes 7 also can be configured to work with Microsoft Exchange, SharePoint Portal and other server platforms. The Notes client can be used as a standalone "POP/SMTP" email client similar to programs such as Microsoft Outlook. Consult your system administrator or Internet service provider to ensure that you have a working connection to the appropriate server resources to send and receive email efficiently.
