We have servers that for reasons of a firewall restriction cannot reach the
mail server by SMTP, but can reach the Lotus Notes server. Is there a
command line utility that would let us send SMTP mail using Notes mail
through the normal Notes protocols on port 1352? We are using Notes
5.1x.

I have created department address book nsf for common groups and put
it on the common server (not notes server) to share. But Notes will
not let me add it to the mail address list in Preferences as it is not
on my c: drive under 'data'.

We can not add or update common groups because everything is
outsourced and costs each time a change is made.

Is there a way for several people to use this common address book
without it being put on the Notes server? Maybe an agent that copies
the groups to each persons local address book on startup or a way to
fool notes into looking at the nsf file on the server.

All I want to do is have a shares set of group email addresses than
each of the team can use or update, but without using the notes server.
