Lotus Training : Lotus Domino 6 Mail Administration

During this course you configure traditional Notes mail as well as standards-based SMTP mail transfer and delivery. You set up several mail clients, including Notes, Internet mail (POP3), iNotes for Microsoft Outlook, and a Web browser for Webmail and iNotes Web Access.

This course stresses the role of directories, including the Domino Directory, Directory Catalog, Mobile Directory Catalog, and Extended Directory Catalog, and how to make them available via Directory Assistance. It also covers the configuration of Domino to support LDAP requests.

This course also covers mail security for both Notes and Internet mail clients, including the use of X.509 certificates for digital signing and encryption.

This is an intensely practical course, offering significant hands-on experience with the Domino Server and Domino Administrator software.

Lotus Training Learning Objectives

In this course, you will learn how to:

Configure Intranet and Internet mail routing using the NRPC and SMTP protocols

Set up the Notes client to send and receive mail, set up an Internet mail client to send mail via SMTP and retrieve mail via POP3 or IMAP4 protocols, configure Outlook clients to use iNotes for Microsoft Outlook, and use a browser to access mail via Webmail or iNotes Web Access

Utilize the various directory types for mail addressing as well as for mail transfer and delivery

Configure the Domino Server to support name and address book lookups by Internet mail clients using LDAP

Configure the NRPC and SMTP Router controls and restrictions to improve routing performance and reduce unsolicited emails

Utilize Notes mail security features and serve as your own Internet Certificate Authority, create Server and client X.509 digital IDs, enable SSL, and digitally sign and encrypt mail sent to Internet mail clients

Support Notes calendar and scheduling, including inter-domain resource reservations

Configure Notes mail to use a Shared Object Store

Reduce Mail database size through Server-based archiving and by applying a Single Copy Template
