Lotus Quickr integration with Lotus iNotes
IBM® Lotus® Quickr® has been integrated with Lotus iNotes™. To enable this feature, use a mail policy setting "Allow Quickr Integration," which is on the Lotus iNotes - Configuration tab of the Mail policy settings document.

If you do not use policies or if you want to enable or disable this feature temporarily on a trial basis, you can use the notes.ini setting iNotes_WA_Quickr=1 to enable it server-wide, or iNotes_WA_Quickr=0 to disable it server-wide. Using this setting overrides any policy setting.

Next, set up an HTTP-proxy servlet by creating a proxy-config.properties file (in the c:\Domino\data\properties directory), and including one or more entries for the Quickr server(s). If the Quickr server is in the same SSO domain as the Domino server, then an LTPA token should also be included in the list of allowed cookies in the proxy-config.properties file. For information on setting up an HTTP-proxy servlet, see the topic in this Help "Using an HTTP-proxy Servlet to restrict URLs to external servers."

Finally, to use Lotus Quickr integration features in Lotus iNotes 8.5, you must enable session-based authentication using either single-server or multi-server authentication (also known as single sign-on or SSO) for your Domino mail server. If you configure your Domino server for SSO and the Lotus Quickr servers that you are connecting to are in the same domain, users can access Lotus Quickr servers just by allowing the LTPA token to be passed through the white-list for proxy-config.properties. If the Lotus Quickr server is not in the same domain, users will be prompted for each session to authenticate with the servers they are connecting to.

When browsing the Lotus Quickr servers, the list of feeds returned from the Lotus Quickr is limited to 50 by default due to performance consideration. To change the default number of feeds allowed, use the NOTES.INI setting iNotes_WA_Quickr_Feed_Page_Size and specify the number of feeds to return in the server’s NOTES.INI file.

If you have Lotus Quickr Connectors installed, Lotus iNotes does not support the connector's preferences and place settings. To use those place settings in Lotus iNotes, you must configure them using Lotus iNotes preferences.

Lotus iNotes supports the following user tasks:
