Re: Email packages

Yes we are using the Team Room function. My people had a short learning
curve but they really like it. There is one thing that I think they could
work on is the Rules. Like in Outlook you can go to Organize and setup your
rule based on an existing message, this does not exist in Notes 5.10 at
least. But other than that we live by it. We are using the Team Room
template with some modifications for support tracking. It someone calls in
with a problem it is entered in the systems and assigned to someone or a
group. Everyone works off of this. They document every call or issue so we
can have a great trail as to what occured and how it was resolved.

Questions for you:  Do you use the Groupware functions? If so, how is it
received by the users?  Is there a learning curve?

We are running Domino and Notes on a iSeries and love it. I had been
running MS xchange 2000 using active dir and we have no end to problems. We
wound up rebooting at least 3 to 4 times a week. Web access was full of
security issues. I never used Lotus Notes before ,and you can check with
the guys at Bass Pro , that I was very reluctant to use Lotus Notes. After
the problems we had with Exchange I knew the next platform had to be
stable. We requested a Loaner Dedicated Domino Server from IBM and got to
keep it for 2 months. During that time we had Zero (0) unscheduled
downtime. It just keep on running. It ran so well that we had the Domino
Server forward the mail to the Exchange Server and vice versa. We setup
users in Lotus Notes and they loved being able to get their mail while
others would struggle with Exchange. This is just to say that we are
extremely pleased with the Lotus Notes solution.

I have been asked by my CTO to throw this message out here and see what
type of feedback I get.

We are using GroupWise as our email software. Overall we are pretty
satisfied with it, but some are pushing for a switch. To what is the
question. Lotus Notes is one option. Doesn't this run on the AS400? Can I
get some feedback from those who use it there and especially from those who
made a switch from GroupWise or Outlook (the other option)? What about
performance or dasd space considerations? What about remote access like via
the web? I know nothing about Lotus Notes so go easy on me.
If anyone is using other packages and want to give their opinions I would
appreciate those as well.

Thanks,
Dave
