MailMerge Excel to Notes - Review: Excellent Work


Hi – I previously left these remarks at

http://sachachua.com/blog/2010/05/even-more-awesome-lotusscript-mail-merge-for-lotus-notes-microsoft-excel/

Firstly thank to David and Sacha originally for a really excellent idea which is simple to integrate into Notes Mail without having to mess with anything existing.
You asked for feedback and ideas so there were three things that our Mail Admins and other Developers asked me to add.
 

1. Configurable limit on number of emails you can send in one go (spamming concerns) – simply defined a constant and checked it on the sending agents.

2. Configurable limit on mail (attachment) size (mail quota concerns) – simply defined a constant and checked it on the Create Agent

3. Check the current Uiview to ensure the user is in the Drafts View – seems obvious that they would be but testers fell over at this hurdle. This code went in the Create Agent.



In this field you can enter the actual review.

You can use the rich text editor for rich text formating. You can also enter HTML to embed objects, e.g. to embed a YouTube video or a screenshot of the project. In this case use '[' and ']' to mark the passthrough HTML as such.

Please note that the first time you use the new UI your description is converted from rich text to MIME. You might want to copy and paste the raw plain text from the old UI in the new UI so that you don't loose information.
