This is the worst email program ever.....

Notes/Domino 8 Forum

Subject:

1. I tend to take people that are too afraid to use their real name as trolls and potential posters from competitors.

Well I can tell you that you that this is from a user standpoint and not a competitor. I worked for Whirlpool for many years and we switched to Lotus with ver 7 and it sucked then as it does now with ver 8

2. What version of Notes are you using?
8.5

3. What version of template are you using?
have no idea, why do you need to have a template for just an email program anyway?

4. Do you manage the notes/Domino system, or someone else?
Hell no I dont manage it, I just use what corp manadates to use but I do know many of the IT people hate this piece of crap too! In all my 10 yrs of experience with this program, I have only found 1 person who really liked it and that was because he was a certified tester for the software. This is not rocket science, I have used many email prgrams and even my Comcast email account is easier to use than this piece of crap.
5. How did you lose your archive files? Give details.
Have no clue and neither does our IT dept. I was told that if its not in the archive its gone and now I am experiencing CLFNM0198E: CSI was unable to move documents to folder: {0}
Can't find view error which is how I found this forum. This is nothing against anyone at all this is just a frustration that continues to plague the corporations which buy into this. I was once told by an IT person that this was part of the package deal, that if you bought the Domino networking software this was part of the package as "free" so why would any company turn this down? Why would you have two programs, one for networking and then a seperate one for emails? Makes sense but if this is true then you would have to wonder why it is being given to a company for free. Oh, I have heard the stories that the corp office sets it own template and that is what is causing the problem. Well I can tell you I have used other emails and this is the only one that I have ever had so much problems with and I even spoke to an IBM employee at a trade show and asked him about the problems and he replied that he doesnt use it he uses MS Outlook. I think you would find more people out there that would agree with my statement that this is one of the worst pieces of email junk out there and IBM should be ashamed of it.
But I bet they wont agree, they dont have the high ethical standards to do so.
