Re: DAMO question

[Chris Whisonant <chris.whisonant@xxxxxxxxx>]

The last supported release of DAMO is 8.0.2 with some special hotfix
versions. If you go to FixCentral, you should be able to find the latest
version. As of a little over a year ago, we had a client using DAMO for a
subset of users and we had 8.5.x servers. I was also aware from an IBMer
that there was supposedly one last uber fix-pack for DAMO that had yet to
be released. But when we were on the latest level available it was mostly
stable. Though I doubt they will get support for Windows 7 "official" and
you'll be tied to older versions of Outlook mostly.

Options to the Notes Client?

iNotes
Thunderbird
Outlook
other POP3 clients

Please do not, I repeat DO NOT, try running IMAP clients against Domino. It
doesn't handle IMAP well at all. I have an iSeries customer that had a
grand total of 18 users running IMAP clients and the IMAP task constantly
used 95+% of the i's CPU. The only way that I found to solve that was to
make them implement Inbox Maintenance as IMAP was having so much trouble
keeping up with 1.5 years worth of mail in under 20 users' mail files. :-/
