DISPLAYING, CREATING, EDITING, DELETING NOTES MAIL FORM TEMPLATES
All Notes mail documents are composed of two parts—the FORM note and the DATA note. The FORM note contains the definition of each field in the mail document. These fields can be static text, images or binary attachments. However, all of these fields are stored as binary information under the Lotus Notes environment. As a result, the Notes connector requires the form templates so that NOTESOUT can export the information to the right fields in a pre-defined format in Internet email messages.

The database (FORMS.BTR) located under the FORMS sub-directory of the Internet Exchange Installation stores the mappings of the Notes Form template name and the corresponding ASCII form file (with extension .FRM).

The initial configuration screen displays a list of available Notes mail form names stored in the database.

To display the Notes Mail Form Templates:

  1. Select a form from the list box.
  2. Click the Show button to display the corresponding ASCII form name.

To create a new record, press the New button.

To modify the settings:

  1. You may select a Notes form name from the list.
  2. Click the Edit button

To delete a record:

  1. Select an entry from the list.
  2. Click the Delete button to remove that mapping from the database.
