Outlook (2007 now) is my favorite mail client and I would like to keep using it for both private and work emails. But with my new work, I discovered (with horror) that we have to use Lotus Domino and Lotus Notes 6.5 as client.
Is it possible to get my Lotus mails inside Outlook while maintaining my private POP mails in their existing PST ?
Here is the configuration:
Lotus Domino server version is 6.5
Outlook 2007 (fully patched) with a pst file created to handle private POP mail accounts.
MS Office Outlook Connector for IBM Lotus Domino v2.0.4007.0
EDIT: Of course, I have tried to add the account directly using Tools ==> Account Settings ==> New ==> Other ==> Lotus Notes Mail, exit Outlook and re-open it. Then I get the following error:
The set of folders cannot be opened. An unexpected error has occured.
MAPI was unable to load the information service nwnsp.dll. Be sure the service is correctly installed and configured.
(This also my first question to StackOverflow so it is my way to test the return of this site.)
EDIT 1/07/2009: As I have discovered that the POP/SMTP ports were opened, I have decided to use this method to retrieve and send emails, fully aware of the disadvantage of the methods but at leas,t I am now using Outlook as client.
The best way to do it is to use Domino Access Manager for Outlook.
There is an IBM redbook that provides all the details here:
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg246754.html
Abtract:
This IBM Redbook discusses IBM Lotus® Domino® Access for Microsoft® Outlook, the software solution that allows Outlook client users to easily access mail and calendar data that is stored on Lotus Domino servers.
If you want to improve the reliability and scalability of your messaging infrastructure and to add collaboration, upgrading from Microsoft Exchange to IBM Lotus Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook (DAMO) provides the solution. With DAMO, you have reliable, scalable, and secure Lotus Domino Messaging to Microsoft Outlook users without requiring users to change from the Outlook client -- users simply work with mail, calendar, and task data on Lotus Domino instead of Microsoft Exchange. Familiar Microsoft Outlook features are supported, including rich text, folders and Directory Catalog. Lotus Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook also gives Microsoft Outlook users the additional benefits of Domino Messaging features, including full text search capability for their mailbox and native support for Internet standards (SMTP/MIME and HTML).

If you only use Outlook to connect to Exchange Online then you don’t
need to worry, as long as you are using Office 2019 or Office 2019 Pro
Plus you’ll be fine come October 2020.

I am using Outlook version 2101 from Microsoft 365. I am not using custom API's, but I still see Outlook using basic authentication. For example, I pulled four log entries that occurred with using Outlook. Log details:
Application: Office 365 Exchange Online
Client App[1]: Offline Address Book
Client App[2]: MAPI Over HTTP
Client App[3]: Autodiscover
Client App[4]: Exchange Web Services
All 4 client applications fail to support modern authentication, which will fail when basic authentication ends. What do the users of Outlook at my company need to do to suspend using basic authentication? I have been attempting to enforce MFA but cannot get past Outlook continuously prompting users for their login credentials.
Solution:
Check org setting for modern authentication. This must be turned on before MFA will work properly. You can also enable security defaults in the Azure portal, but this approach does not allow you to selectively enroll users into MFA.
Open Microsoft 365 admin center
Show All
Settings
Org Settings
Modern authentication
Turn on modern authentication for Outlook 2013 for Windows and later
This setting allows for multiple exceptions, which will support your organization to continue to use basic authentication while you transition to modern authentication.
With this setting in place, you can selectively enforce Office 365 MFA on users. Each user will have to rebuild their locally installed Outlook profile before being able to use Outlook.
I'm trying to connect an application I've written with an old on-premise Exchange 2010 server. Obviously this is not supported, I was wondering if Outlook 2010 end users + Exchange online server would allow the use of Microsoft Graph API?
If the Mailbox is an Office365 Mailbox (or you've configured hybrid https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/deva/2019/03/16/deep-dive-how-to-configure-exchange-on-premise-server-hybrid-integration-with-office-365-test-rest-api-calls/) then you can use the Graph API to access that Mailbox. The version of Outlook doesn't really matter as the API is strictly service side, but depending on what your actually doing client side you may find a lot client side integration pain and you would be better to upgrade the latest version of Outlook on the clients. That would give you more options when you redevelop your application as you can make use of the new Addin's platform etc.
Does Outlook2010/2013interface with anything other than IMAP or Pop3? If so how? While manual configuration of imap works, the autodiscover wizard is turning up nothing. I have the cname on my 1and1.com pointed to www.mydomain.us. The manual setup for Outlook.com or compatible prompts for a server. Is that supposed to be the same server as specified for the imap?
I am hoping that setup for Outlook clients on pc and laptops is as seamless as it is when the pc/laptop is on a LAN. Can Outlook Anywhere (over https/rpc) be used? If so, how does one obtain the proxy server names and settings?
When it is all setup will the enduser experiance emulate that of Outlook and Exchange 2010 in regards to calender sharing and contacts?
Thankyou for any insight.
I don't know what 1and1.com offers, however you can only use OutlookAnywhere (RPC-over-HTTP) with Exchange 2003-2013.
Outlook 2003-2013 can use IMAP, POP, Exchange MAPI (RPC). With add-ons you may be able to support other protocols, but I've never used any.
For autodiscover to work, you'll usually need Exchange although there are some ways to generate the autodiscover XML without Exchange. Outlook 2010-13 (and I think 2007 too) can try guess the settings for IMAP/POP settings based on your email address, but the server would have to use pretty standard hostnames and ports for it to guess correctly.
IMAP and POP only support email message types and will not sync contacts and calendars between the server and the Outlook client, not natively anyway.
I'm Creating a workflow that needs to send the users an email on set events. This I don't have a problem with. However can someone please confirm if you need the local windows SMTP service installed or if I can use another method for it to send the emails.
UPDATE
Ok I've just read about the E-mail Router, just need to find out where it is, and how to get to the configuration settings.
UPDATE
Update 2
Right, Iv'e looked into it and the e-mail router configuration is not used on this CRM set-up, it used an Outlook Add-in which I cant find a lot of into on.
However it appears to work flawlessly.
end update 2
Thanks
AFAIK, Microsoft CRM uses Exchange server to send out emails. Haven't you configured this during setup?
You are right that the Email Router is the way to enable outbound emails from Dynamics CRM. If you haven't done so already, I strongly encourage you to download the Dynamics CRM Implementation Guide. You can jump right to the section called "Planning e-mail integration" to read about it.
What you need to do is configure the e-mail router to operate with a POP3/SMTP server. You can use Windows Server's SMTP service for that. You can use almost any service - i have configured it to work with my gmail account, for instance.
Here are three good articles that you can read to learn more about the e-mail router.
What's New in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 E-Mail Integration
Dynamics CRM 4.0 E-mail Integration Overview
Microsoft Dynamics CRM: How to configure the On-premise and Online E-mail Router in different deployment scenarios
Now when you configure an email from a workflow, CRM will automatically forward it out through the router to your SMTP email account.
It looks like there are at least two options, one which uses the SMTP or exchange. And another which is an outlook plugin. Which syncs the emails with the owners outlook and then sends out the emails.
EDIT
So the two options which both work are:
Email Router - This appears to be the standard and can use various email servers
Outlook add-in - This sends email based on the owner/email settings in the CRM record.
This works with any email CRM wants to send, and even works with workflows.
I've not got to the bottom of why the outlook add-in has been used at this site, however the workflow functions appear to run without problem, and seamlessly to the owner/user.

I'm working at a client site, and connect to their Exchange 2000 server via web mail. I have Outlook 2007 running as well connected to my companies Exchange 2007 over HTTP.
Is there any way to connect to the client's Exchange 2000 server using anything other than web mail? Ideally, Outlook 2007 would be able to do it, but I don't think that is possible. POP isn't an option, because I need calendaring.
Thanks,
Zach
Unfortunately, Outlook 2007 can only connect to one Exchange server per profile. To get this capability, you can upgrade to Outlook 2010. Outlook 2010 will connect to multiple Exchange servers in a single profile with no problem.
As a consultant, I have the need to connect to multiple email accounts all the time--my current profile is configured to connect to my corporate Exchange server, a client's Exchange server, two different Office 365 (Exchange Online) accounts, two different Google Apps accounts, and a Hotmail account. I love being able to easily navigate among all the different email accounts I regularly use via the native Outlook 2010 UI; I could never go back to multiple browser windows and Outlook profiles!
[I realize this is a 'stale' question, but I noticed it popped up in a search on the topic so I'm posting this answer as this information isn't reflected in any of the earlier answers.]
You can always use more than one Outlook profile.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HA011471581033.aspx
There is a way of opening 2 Outlook instances running 2 different profiles.
Please see this link -> http://www.pcauthority.com.au/Feature/136036,server-101-access-multiple-exchange-servers-with-outlook.aspx
I dont think outlook will allow more than 1 exchange server connection. One option would be using another email clients like thunderbird to connect to the other exchange server [I haven't tried it though]. In case you need to know how to configure thnderbird to connect to exchange server, here is a link.
You can create multiple profiles in Outlook. You won't be able to open them all at the same time, but you can set outlook to ask you whihc profile to open when you start it.
this is an old link, but the process is essentially the same if dealing with 2003 or 2007.

With Exchange 2000, external access is only possible using Outlook Web Access or POP/IMAP. With Exchange 2003 and 2007 you can connect using the outlook client using RPC, but not in 2000.
On a side, you can only have 1 Exchange connection in outlook, so you would have to use multiple profiles.
Apple's Mail Client will connect to any number of Exchange servers at a time. I believe that the Open Source Evolution mail client will similarly do so.
