Configuring Verse

HCL Verse provides HCL Notes® users with browser-based access to Notes® mail and to Notes® calendar and scheduling features. Administrators specify mail policy and security policy settings as well as notes.ini file settings to complete the full implementation of HCL Verse.

Verse users can send and receive mail, view their calendars, invite people to meetings, and work offline. After being set up for Verse, a user can use both the standard Notes® client and a Web browser to access their mail files. Because both the Notes® client and Verse operate on the same underlying user mail file, read and unread marks remain up-to-date, regardless of which client they use to read their mail. Users can also synchronize contact information in their Notes® Contacts with information in their Verse contacts list.

While users simply need a name and Internet password to log on and use Verse, a Notes® ID is required if a user wants to work offline. Be sure to create a Notes® ID for each user when registering new users.
