From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computing, the program IBM Lotus iNotes offers a fully-featured web-based version of the IBM Lotus Notes client. It provides an interactive interface that duplicates the functionality of Lotus Notes within a web browser. Lotus iNotes comes as a feature in Lotus Domino. The administrator can turn this feature on to allow access of mails via browser.
[edit] Functionality
Lotus iNotes allows users of IBM Lotus Domino to access their Domino-based mail, calendar, schedule, to-do list, contacts, and notebook (Notes Journal) from any computer which has a certified web browser and an Internet connection. It uses dynamic HTML and Ajax to provide a rich user experience while minimizing the number of full-page refreshes and transactions interacting with the Domino web server. It also integrates with the IBM Lotus Sametime instant-messaging platform and offers offline support through IBM Lotus Domino Off-Line Services (DOLS).
[edit] History
- A client called "Lotus Notes Webmail" provided limited web access to web-enabled Lotus Notes email systems (versions 4 and 5) from the late 1990s.
- Release 5.0.8 (2001) of Lotus Notes introduced iNotes, which featured a fuller interface than the Webmail client. That year, Network Computing gave a "Well-Connected Award" to iNotes for "Best Web-based Application".[1]
- Release 6.5 of Lotus Domino (September 2003) renamed iNotes to Domino Web Access.
- Release 7.0.2 of Lotus Domino (September 2006) introduced support for the Macintosh.
- Release 8.5 of Lotus Domino (January 2009) renamed Domino Web Access back to iNotes.[2]
