I feel before I start that this is a daft question but here goes.
Where I work they have a requirement to take a notes database with them on the road and are wondering if they can run Lotus Notes on a XDA Pro / Qtek 9000. I for one dont think it will work specially as the database they want to access is 1Gb or there abouts.
But thought I'd ask you guys anyway as you all seem so clever ;o)

Hi,
Sybase makes a tool for PPC which is Lotus Notes portable. It has a mail file, and the ability to send, receive and file mail. It is not free, and I am still looking for a free option.
Microsofts Outlook 2003 Lotus Notes adaptor is useless because it doesn't work for me.
Try the sybase Lotus notes program.
Cheers.
The answer: mnotes and mform
Hi,
Check out mNotes and mForm from Commontimes. I use mnotes for a long time, and it is the most stable replicator for Notes mail db-s. You can replicate other databases as well, check out their website. Their customer support is excellent, and they support the latest Notes versions.
I hope you find this useful !
Hi!
I have a Dell Axim x50v (VGA device) running WM5 AKU 2.3, and would really want to have HTML support for email, since WM5 email client doesn't support it. I don't want to download any extra third-party application like Flexmail, but rather would like to know if there is some kind of a plugin for this native email client that allows HTML support.... I heard of WM6 and it's richer email client. Is there any way you can install WM6 email client on a windows mobile 5 device like mine? If not, is there any WM6 ROM that will work on my PDA? (Other things like viewing Internet Explorer Mobile in high resolution mode, or the new "calendar ribbon" would also be a worthy upgrade.)
.... There is a very slight chance that Dell will release an official WM6 upgrade considering how old my model is.... (it came out in 2004, being replaced by x51 models in late 2005).
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
For what I have read, you are basically out of luck.
You can't rip the email client out of WM6 since it seems to be very much incorporated within the OS. If you want to enjoy the WM6 email client you have to upgrade.
As far as if there is a WM6 I am not sure and since you have reached a HTC forum, well, have you tried a Dell site?

Quoted for the truth.
Outlook (PIM) depends on Shell, Shell depends on Coredll, Coredll depends on kernel. Bummer.
Like I said, there is no chance that Dell will be releasing WM6 upgrade for its handhelds, so visiting "aximsite" wasn't very usefull for me right now.
When you guys mentioned that the WM6 email client is very much incorporated with the OS, does the same apply with the Internet Explorer Mobile that now supports high resolution, or the Microsoft "MarketPlace"?
Is there at least a third-party HTML support plugin for the native email client, or is Flexmail the only solution for viewing HTML-formatted emails? (I would really prefer a "free" third-party application.)

Try Qmail IMHO the best email program and what is more important free
http://q3.snak.org/download/ take most up to date compilation from Nightly build section and don't be afraid about japanese page Qmail is in english! At the bottom of download page you'll find openssl extension for secure connections.
I can't properly download this "Qmail" program. If I want to download and install it through activesync by first of all extracting the zip file from the nightly build and then running the exe file, it eventually says "not a valid Win32 application" or something like that. In fact, i can't stand that official japanese website, cause i get that same message for anything i try to download from there.
Actually, i got a chance to see how Qmail works (looks pretty nice - it supports HTML, right?), but not necessary to use it. Instead of running it on a PC, i copied right away that zip file to my device, and installed Total Commander on my PPC. However, I had to extract each component for Qmail separately using the Total Commander. Really a disasterous download, if not even. It ended up opening the program, but never really saving it anywhere on my device. After a quick soft reset, there is no more trace of it.
So, SERIOUSLY, does anyone have an alternate cab or exe file of the latest nightly build for Qmail v3 that actually works, not links to that japanese website?
I think you don't get the idea of inslalling it it's not self installing program! unpack it on your desktop than move whole folder with all files (all dlls and q3u.exe) to some folder on your ppc, probably the best is storage card. You can copy files that way by opening activesync and than klicking on explore button there will be your ppc just like any other folder in normal desktop pc. Copy whole qmail folder to it and thats it, you can start qmail using totalcommander on ppc or later create some shortcut to program on today or in programs.
here is packed folder "Qmail" with all needed files unpack it on your desktop and copy unpacked folder with files to your ppc using activesync explore button! Sorry but I can't write it more simply This one works on my ppc as all other versions did!

and one more thing here you can read somthing more about qmail and the power of this program! also how to set it up

Nice!!! I finally got Qmail installed on my device. Seems like it can do a lot more than just let you view HTML-formatted email. So, how well does it compete with the native WM6 email client?
Ohh, you guys never answered me about WM6 Internet Explorer. I find that IE that comes with WM5 takes very long time to open pages, or at least - fairly slow. (Doesn't work very well in the morning when you are in a rush, and don't want to wait for your PC to start up, and whenever it's ready to connect to the internet). Many WM6 reviews say that the WM6 IE is quite faster, supports AJAX, and especially more stable. (Don't know how to explain it to you, but when scrolling too fast the web pages, especially in landscape mode, at one point all the graphics and program icons become as if shattered with black, grey, green, red, ... lines -the images corrupted, that requires soft reset.) Not sure if this is an error, or if WM6 fixes it. That's why I was thinking of overwriting my current IEMobile with the Internet Explorer that comes with WM6. Or is it hard-coded, as well as WM6 email client, into the OS?
One last question. (sorry, if I'm bothering you guys too much.) Everyone knows that IEMobile of any kind does not allow multiple tabs. And i really would have preffered some kind of a plug-in, not a separate web browser, that allows it. I tried PIEPlus, but it also adds way too many features that I don't even need (i need a browser plugin that handles it as simple as possible) that only wastes more memory, and i think, slows down the IE even more. Any idea???
Ok, I know I was asking above lots of things. So, to make it easier:
1)Does anyone know how i can speed up my internet explorer mobile?,
2)And how i can fix that occasional screen error that occurs while browsing the internet that messes up my whole PDA?
So, um, can somebody help me?
Hello! Is anyone out there?
Guys,
Just got my P3600, flashed with bepe WM6 image which is really stable bar for the email accounts disappearing.
Does anyone know of a really simple email app that just downloads from the server but keeps the messages on the server. Also would like it to check every 5minutes and tie in with the HTC today page as it currently displays the outlook email.
Also, what are the must have applications for this? Is there a good list i can have a look through?
Cheers
Must have applications list for P3600 with WM5 can be found on
LDCWeb2.0 (french)
All applications in this list are available also for WM6 or few are now useless (because natively included in the OS).
For your purpose, according Pocket Outlook is not enough for you, perharps you can try emoze or morange.
thanks for the suggestions,
is pocket outlook the version thats loaded on by default as i have problems with the accounts disappearing....

hi folks! I have been playing around with my new tilt 2 and searching this forum and the web for an answer but have been unsuccesful. I am trying to learn how to set up an "out of office" (OOF) auto reply using Outlook mobile. Most references I see to this are for Windows 6.1. I have looked under Tools and Options while in outlook inbox and while in the calendar and I do not see the OOO assistant anywhere. Anyone know where to find this? I was hoping to find some sort of user manual for WinMo 6.5 that would provide info like this but cant find that either.
any advice would be great, thnx!

Hi Taz The instructions for setting it up are on page 158 of your Tilt2 users manual.
If you don't have yours anymore, there's an archived copy on THIS page
thxn for the reply sirphunkee! unfortunately, when I navigate to Outlook email and then click on Menu -> Tools, the only option I have is "Sort By". I do not see an out of office option like the instructions suggest. Any idea what I could be missing here?

No, and I noticed I don't have the option there either...but I'm running WM 6.1 instead of 6.5 so I assumed that was the reason. However, after looking around some it seems that all references are to the option being in that location, for both 6.1 and 6.5. The only other possibility I see is that the option will work only if the account is through an M$ exchange server, particularly 2007...do you know if the account you're accessing is on an Exchange '07 server, or on Exchange at all?
That's all I could really find on that...
It is connecting to an exchange server but I'm not sure which version it is....
You need Exchange 2007 or 2010 in order for the Out Of Office to work. I'm a Systems Administrator btw
