You should be able to delete any IMAP mail from within Outlook (and hence also Opera) and propagate this deletion via IMAP back to the server.

If so, it's probably a malfunction in Opera Mail or a setting in the ACL of your Mail-database. But I can't see why this would be disabled.

Domino supports HTTP (Webmail) , IMAP, POP3 and Lotus Notes RPC, IF configured on the server.

I am not sure what you mean by not IMAP ompliant?

{{TjL writes: many places, including AOL implement IMAP, but they don't do it in such a way that follows the standards. For example, AOL's IMAP will not work well with other mail clients, possibly to encourage people to only use the AOL client? At any rate, that is what is meant by not being compliant. Actually AOL recently added an IMAP feature which had been previously missing but did it so badly that it was actually worse than when they didn't have it at all.}}

Problem with this is that you assume that the organisation provides IMAP access. Many organisation that use Lotus Notes are running Lotus Domino server, which is not IMAP ompliant. If there is an IMAP mail server available you can use any (and as many) different mail clients as you want, concurrently.

This is all well and good but… I am homschooled through Learnnet, unfortunetly they sided with the devil… er um I mean IBM and are stuck with Lotus. I have abandoned Sametime in favour of Meanwhile Plugin for GAIM but still just being able to recive my Lotus email in Opera isn’t good enough…

Dan,

You can access your email from the Lotus Domino server using any Web Browser. This has always been the case since version 4.6 onwards.

All you need to do is to ask your I.T. staff and tell them you want web access to your email. From here you will be able to access your calendar, etc...

Later

P.s. The Lotus Notes Client is not an email client. Your email is simply just an add-on to the client. As for the slowness you are experiencing, contact your I.T. and get them to sort it out!
