Release 1.1a



This is identical to the 1.1 release, with the following minor changes:

• Changed the Default user in the ACL to be "Manager" instead of "Depositor" so you can set everything up properly (after you make yourself Manager, you should change the Default back to Depositor, though – as per the instructions)
  
  
  
• Clarfied the instructions for how to sign the database in the "Using This Database" doc
  
  
  
  
  
  CHANGES IN VERSION 1.1
  
• Modified the default Strings in the SettingsDoc class to check for user-defined values in the DatabaseSettings doc, to make it easier to localize the messages in this database for non-English languages. In other words, you can now customize all of the strings from the profile doc instead of having to make updates directly to the SettingsDoc class.
  
  
  
• As a result of making the default SettingsDoc Strings modifiable in the profile doc, it made sense to no longer make the Strings "static final", to avoid any weirdness with caching of static values in Domino.
  
  Renamed the new mail agent from "Process Mail Incoming Mail" to "Process Incoming Mail".
  
  
  
• Added the "ReProcess Selected Docs" agent, to allow you to manually run the mail processing code against selected docs in a view, even if they've already been processed.
  
  
  
  
  
  DESCRIPTION
  
  At times, e-mails you receive from users of Outlook/Exchange will be plain-text messages with a large attachment at the end called either "Winmail.dat" or "ATT0001.dat". The reason why this happens is described fairly well in Microsoft Technote 241538:
  
  
  
  http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q241538
  
  
  
  However, you as a Lotus Notes user must now do something with that .dat file, especially if there are file attachments trapped inside. While there are stand-alone freeware and shareware applications that will read those files for you (as long as you save the file to your hard drive and perform some manual steps), this database is meant to be a Domino mail-in database where users can simply forward their messages here and it will extract the files and send them back to the user. All you have to do is:
  
  
  
• Set this database up as a mail-in database
  
• Tell users to forward their Winmail.dat e-mails to this database
  
• The database will extract the files from Winmail.dat and send them back to the user
  
  
  
  Please see the "Using This Database" document for information on how to set this database up properly.
  
  
  
  The Winmail.dat/TNEF file extraction makes use of a wonderful open source and GPLed JTNEF library by Amichai Rothman. Please visit his site ( http://www.freeutils.net ) if you have any questions about the underlying TNEF conversion code, or the licensing of his library.
