Re: Customized letterhead -- DOMINO400

I would be inclined to use an available LDAP server.
There is a defined attribute for picture in the schema - just for what you
described. (Photo and JpegPhoto are both defined)
If you are like the rest of the world you probably already have either an
ADAM server established in your AD environment.
You could have the Network / Physical security folks add the pictures
they used for badges to the existing entry
then you could use a URL in your Signature to point to the picture. THis
is good becasue photos wont be sent outside of your local domain.
The user can activate/deactivate there sig as appropriate

Re: Customized letterhead

Robert,

As I understand it, the whole point of this is for a company to be
able to have a person's picture in his/her person document in the
Domino directory. It would be rather useless if it weren't.

While the Personal Name and Address Book template and the Server Name
and Address Book (Domino Directory) templates aren't the same for
obvious reasons, the person form in each have to be pretty similar in
order for the view action "Copy To Personal Address Book" in the
Domino Directory to work.

We're not on 8 yet, but the question I have is, does the directory
template(Domino Directory) have the placeholder for the picture or just

the

personal address book template(Contacts) ?

The Contacts template and the Directory template are not the same...

Why is this bad news? The example was from a personal address book,
but as I stated, in most cases these will be found in the Domino
Directory, not a personal address book.

I discourage copying our companies address book to your personal

address

book. Even just the entries from our department. Too often have I

seen

changes (name changes, etc) not get propagated. I am willing to put up
with the hassle of having to reach into my wallet for list of

departmental

employees versus scrolling through my large contact list in my Treo. (I
sync my Treo with Notes.)

Re: Customized letterhead

The picture in the link is a personal address book, but you can add a
photograph to a contact in either one. I would imagine that most of
the contacts containing pictures in a local address book would simply
be contacts copied from the Domino Directory, given that most
endusers aren't going to go to the trouble of adding a picture to a
contact in their personal address book.

Does that link refer to the Domino Directory or the Personal Address
Book(referred to as Contacts in 8) ?

Re: Customized letterhead

When your company rolls out Notes/Domino R8, your management will
have the option to add a photograph to each person's contact record
in the Lotus Notes Name and Address book (directory). Here's the

Re: Customized letterhead

I sent my response before I saw Walter's response. Up to that

point,

it appeared to me that you wanted to include a picture for all

email,

including Internet email.

Even given that, if you added your picture to your letterhead at

any

company that I've worked for, you would catch so much grief from

your

co-workers that eventually you'd find yourself removing it. Maybe
your company's different.

At 02:46 PM 11/29/2007, you wrote:

Timothy,

Why should a picture take up any more space than the "Buck

Rodgers"

logo,

etc?

I think the answer is that the letterhead is not sent with the

email.

Apparently there's some simple text in the memo that says which

letterhead

to use. Then it displays an image based on the recipients mail

file.

As

Walter said, if I want my recipients to see my picture in the

letterhead

then I better modify the mail7.ntf (or other templates as

necessary)

and

apply those templates to all mail files on the server. Based on

that

information, I think I'll pass.

On a related note, when I pull up my contact list in Sametime

Connect

Client and start a chat with someone, I see something which looks

like

a

generic shading of a picture. How do I populate that picture

with a

picture of that contact?
