Defined in

DbDirectory

Syntax

public Database openMailDatabase()
    throws NotesException

Return value

Database

The opened database, or null if the database is not opened.

Usage

If the program runs on a workstation, openMailDatabase finds the current user's mail server and database in the notes.ini file.

If the program runs on a server, the current user is considered to be the last person who modified the agent (the agent's owner), and openMailDatabase finds the user's mail server and database in the Domino® Directory on the server.

If the program is making remote (IIOP) calls to a server, the current user is the user who created the session, and openMailDatabase finds the user's mail server and database in the Domino® Directory on the server.
