This optional feature provides 5250 access to the calendars of Lotus Domino . Green screen users are able to participate in the powerful calendaring and scheduling environment of Lotus Domino.
The Domino Calendar Interface Feature offers the following functions:
Calendar ProfilesEvery user has a Calendar Profile which contains some of the properties of the calendar like: default time and date format, business hours, access restrictions, etc.
A user is able to define which other users get access to his calendar information and what level of access is granted. The same way a user might be able to access other people's calendars.
A user's calendar can be displayed in different ways, called views. Depending on the amount of information which needs to be shown, different views can be used:
- Week view
- Two week view
- Month view
- Six month view
Some of these views show a visual representation (called busy bars) of the available free time.
Different types of calendar items can be managed and processed:
- Appointments: An appointment is a calendar item that represents a meeting or appointment.
- Invitations: An invitation is a calendar item that represents a meeting where multiple people are invited to participate or where resources need to be reserved.
- Events: An event is a calendar item that represents an event or conference which spans one or more full days.
- Reminders: A reminder is a calendar item that represents an action which needs to be performed.
- Anniversaries: An anniversary is a calendar item which represents an annual anniversary.
The processing of an invitation (Accept, Decline,...) is integrated with the e-mail capabilities of the EverGreen/400 Base product.
All actions performed by EverGreen/400 users are automatically reflected on the Domino side, and vice versa. This is a two-way process which has been designed for optimal performance and reliability.
This optional feature of EverGreen/400 allows users to communicate with remote servers accessible through a LAN connection.
Remote servers
Besides the standard server support for Lotus Domino for AS/400 and AnyMail/400 installed on the same system as EverGreen/400, this feature allows users to connect to other servers on remote systems. Some examples : Lotus Domino on another AS/400, Microsoft Exchange on a PC based server, any standard POP3/SMTP server on any platform.
This optional toolkit of EverGreen/400 includes a powerful set of Application Program Interfaces (API) that allows you to handle e-mail messages directly from any user-written AS/400 application.
The API's are packaged as separate callable programs to allow integration with programs written in most supported programming languages on the iSeries, such as RPG/400, Cobol, CL, C, C++, Java and ILE versions of these programming languages.
Evergreen is not only capable of sending out emails, it's also possible to detect inbound mails and integrate them in an automated process.
Currently, the following API's are available :
- Create Mail API : An API to compose and optionally send an e-mail message, this is possible with either flat text or html.
- Create Mail API with Attachments : An API to compose and optionally send an e-mail message including attachments
- Deliver Mail API : An API to send previously prepared e-mail messages
- Receive Mail API : An API to receive an e-mail message
- Export Mail API : An API to export an e-mail message from a mail cabinet to a stream file
- Import Mail API : An API to import an e-mail message from a stream file into a mail cabinet
- ul Mail API : An API to retrieve a list of e-mail messages of a mail cabinet
- Retrieve Mail API : An API to retrieve the text and subject of an e-mail message. Optionally, a User Exit Program may be specified to allow processing all the attachments of an e-mail message.
- Check New Mail : A command to generate a notification message when a user has new mail waiting on the server
