Lotus Notes (VIM) Special Setup

cludethe directory where Lotus Notesis installed in the
Path System Variables. To do this, in Control Panel,
open System and select the Environment tab. thense-
lect the Path variable from the System Variables list
and enter the Lotus Notes directory in the Value text
box. Select OKto close System. The Path will take ef-
fect the next time the PC is rebooted.
SMTP/POP3 Special Setup
When VisualMail is configured for SMTP/POP3, you
mustprogram the E-mail Real Name field as described
on page 28. However, the VisualMail must not be
logged on to the SMTP/POP3 E-mail service.
This is because when the VisualMail logs on to the
SMTP/POP3 server, the E-mail Real Name appears as
the sender. Onceit is logged in, programming changes
tothe E-mail Real Name will not take effect until Visu-
alMaillogs out and back in again. The best way to log
out is to change the E-mail System to “None,” update
the database.Wait at least 3 minutes to allow the data-
baseupdate to take effect. Then changethe E-mail Sys-
tem back to “SMTP/POP3” and update again. Visual-
Mail will log back into the E-mail server.
