Using iNotes Redirect to access mail in iNotes
IBM® iNotes® users can access their mail files using iNotes Redirect. With iNotes Redirect, users do not need to know the name of their mail file and mail server, they need only know the name of the iNotes Redirect server. iNotes Redirect uses IBM Domino® authentication methods to redirect a user's browser to their mail file based on their user name and password.
About this task
During setup, you can enforce SSL security for anyone using iNotes Redirect to open their mail file in one of two ways. You can enforce SSL for the entire session, or enforce SSL only for authentication, after which the user is switched back to non-SSL. You can change the SSL port number, if it is not the default 443.
