Platforms and requirements for MAPI
The DLLs required for the Windows™ messaging subsystem are available only from Microsoft™. Before you install the Notes® Client, you must install Microsoft™ Outlook 98 or Microsoft™ Outlook 2000.
Windows™ 98
When you install the Notes® client, the Domino® MAPI service providers are automatically installed. The required DLLs for the Windows™ messaging subsystem are already present in Windows™ 98.
Windows™ 2000
The Domino® MAPI service providers are available for Windows™ 2000. The required DLLs for the Windows™ messaging subsystem are already present in Windows™ 2000.
The Domino® MAPI service providers may only be used to access mail files that use the Domino® Designer 6 mail extended template (MAIL6EX.NTF). If you are upgrading from Release 5.x to Domino® Designer 6, you must upgrade your mail file to use the mail template provided in Domino® Designer 6. To use the service providers, both the client and the server must be running Domino® Designer 6.
The Profile Setup Wizard automatically installs all three service providers. When you create a Microsoft™ Outlook Profile, the wizard uses information stored in the current Location document in Domino®. You make modifications to the Office (Network) Location document to configure the location for server-based mail.
To use workstation-based mail, you modify the Local Mail (Disconnected) Location document. Note that the Location type in the local mail document must be either Local Area Network or No Connection. The Mail section of the location document must specify information about the mail file location, the name of the mail file, and the domain.
Address Book template
To access Domino® Directories through the Address Book Provider, you must apply the Domino® Directory template (PUBNAMES.NTF) to the design. If you are using workstation-based mail, apply the Personal Address Book template (PERNAMES.NTF) to the design of the Personal Address Books.
