Intro

Hey, Thanks for downloading Notes Attic. I hope you like it!

If this is your first time using the program, just open up "notes_attic.exe". You probably won't see any emails when you first open it up - That's because you have to download your current emails from IBM Notes first. The default directory where the emails will be exported is C:\email_archive. You can change this if you like by going to the menu:

[*] Settings > Edit Settings ...  And then modifying the "Email Root Dir".

After that, you can export your emails by going to the menu:

[*] Emails > Manually Download Emails

It should run the "exportnotes.exe" command-line program that comes with the download. Type in your password for IBM Notes, then it should begin downloading your emails and attachments to the "root_dir".

Once it's finished you should be able to click around and see some emails, filter your emails, and be able to view attachments.

*Note: When exporting emails, it will try to export all of your emails. If the email has already been exported, it will not export it again. This will prevent duplicates and allow your email archive to grow without issue.

Automatic Downloading of Emails

You can enable automatic download of emails from the menu:

[*] Emails > Automatically Download Emails > Enable Downloading

You can specify if you want to download your emails Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or Monthly.
