First name
Last name
User name | The login name a client uses to authenticate with the IMAP server must be unique in the Domino Directory.
Depending on the level of Internet access security established for the server (Server document - Security tab), the login name or user name configured on the IMAP client must match an entry in one of these fields. Entries in the User name field are always accepted as the login name. If Internet authentication is set to allow "More name variations with lower security" entries in the First name and Last name fields may also be accepted as login names. |
Internet password | The password that the user enters to access the Domino server from the IMAP client. IMAP users must have an Internet password that complies with your organization's password quality requirements. |
Mail system | Choose IMAP if the user does not require Notes client access. |
Domain | The name of the Notes domain to which the server belongs. |
Mail server | The name of the IMAP user's Domino mail server. |
Mail file | The path for the user's mail file, relative to the Domino data directory -- for example, MAIL\AJONES. |
Forwarding address | Leave this blank for users who access mail files on the Domino server from an IMAP client. |
Internet address | The Internet address at which the user can receive mail within your organization. This address must match the Internet address specified in the IMAP client. |
Format preference for incoming mail | Choose one:
- Keep in sender's format - (default) The mail file may contain messages in either Notes rich text or MIME format. When delivering messages to the mail file, the local Router preserves the current message format. Thus messages received at the server in MIME format are stored in the mail file in MIME format, and messages received at the server in Notes rich text format are in Notes rich text format. When an IMAP client requests a message that is stored in Notes rich text format, the IMAP service must convert the message to MIME before sending it to the client. Because the stored message remains in Notes rich text format, each time an IMAP client requests the message, the IMAP service must perform the conversion.
- Prefers MIME - The mail file stores messages in MIME format only. Choose this option for users who access mail exclusively from an IMAP client. Since IMAP clients require messages in MIME format, storing mail in MIME format ensures the best performance for IMAP users, eliminating the need for the IMAP service to convert messages before passing them to the client. In addition, using MIME storage allows the Router to add special IMAP attributes to the messages it delivers.
- Prefers Notes Rich Text - The mail file stores messages in Notes format only. The Router converts messages received as MIME into Notes rich text before delivery. In addition, the IMAP task must convert messages to MIME format when sending them to an IMAP client. To ensure the best performance, do not choose this option for users who access their Domino mail file primarily from an IMAP client.

When receiving unencrypted mail, encrypt before storing in your mail file | Choose No (default); IMAP clients cannot read encrypted Notes mail.
To ensure that users who read mail exclusively from IMAP clients do not receive Notes-encrypted mail, remove the IMAP users' Notes public encryption keys from their Person documents.
Note Never remove the Notes public key from the Person document of users who access Notes databases from a Notes client. |
