• ND8 Beta

    By Vince Schuurman/NotesOSS 2 decades ago

    For all users of the Notes 8 Public Beta who are using one of the OpenNTF.org mail templates:

    We love that you are using our mail template, but we request that you switch to the default Mail 8 (mail8.ntf) mail template that comes with the Public Beta.

    The best way to provide valuable testing information to IBM during the public beta is using the default template.

    And do not worry, there will be a Notes 8 version of the OpenNTF Mail Experience soon after Notes 8 goes live!

    • Open NTF Dependence

      By Elijah Lapson 2 decades ago

      Talk about how much we are invested in the OpenNTF Mail Experience. I know that our organization will

      not upgrade to Notes version 8 until the OpenNTF Mail Experience template is available.



      Specifically I don't think the Quota size visual representation is going to make the mail8.ntf template.

      This is a testament/testimony to the OpenNTF Mail Experience template. Great job to all those who have worked on this.

      • Thank you for your kind words..

        .. but I think I'll wait for a release candidate before starting on the ND8 mail so at least the template code will be more or less ' stable'.

        • A wise move

          By Elijah Lapson 2 decades ago

          IT seems like there could be a fair amount of changes, cosmetic or otherwise before the Gold release.

    • Notes 8 and OpenNTF

      By Brendon RK Jones 2 decades ago

      Before I installed the Notes 8 beta I was using the OpenNTF Mail template with Notes 7. Now I have a problem accessing mail folders.



      When I click on a mail folder I get the message: "Illegal circular USE: OpenNTFLibraryUI". This message repeats many times, and each time I click on another message.



      Also I can not see the contents of mail messages in some folders.



      Is there any way to totally remove the OpenNTF extensions from my mail file?

      • Best solution is to replace design with ND8 mailfile <eom>

          This fix isn't working for me, Despite replacing the design of my mailfile from the mail8.ntf template, everytime I attempt to open a document I get "Illiegal Circular USE: OpenNTFLibraryUI"



          Is there anything I can do to fix this?

            Cracked it -



            To get rid of the message, you need to run the "Folder Upgrade Wizard" which will replace the design of folders to be the same as the $Inbox.



            If you don't do this then the folders are still referencing the OpenNTF library and this of course is not present
