Use Cases
- 1.Company A - a long-time HCL Domino customer - buys company B, which uses Exchange. During the migration, Squirrel allows the administrator to merge all Exchange/MIME emails from company B into HCL Domino of company A.
- 2.In addition to his own HCL Notes email, the HCL Domino administrator is responsible for several external MIME mail boxes he needs to monitor. To be able to process these MIME emails in his HCL Domino in-box, he uses Squirrel to consolidate these messages boxes.
Description
There is no built-in function in HCL Domino to collect messages from an Internet mail server and to forward them to the user mail database. This server add-in allows the administrator to define the Internet mail servers which are allowed to be used for mail retrieval. The user or the administrator then defines the mail account subscriptions based on these connections. Squirrel works completely in background while periodically connecting to the Internet mail servers and processing the messages for the users.
Squirrel reads the POP3 and IMAP mail servers through standard Java Mail API calls. After processing the message, Squirrel creates a Notes mail document and stores it in the mailbox of the HCL Domino server it is running on without accessing the users mail database. All further processing and delivery of the mail message is handled by the HCL Domino mail router.
