Internat e-mails and rich text

When an e-mail is sent to an Internet Address (nn@domain.com) it can be sent to the server in either a 'Rich Text' format or in a MIME Format (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) depending on the setting within your Notes Client.

For the e-mail to be delivered to an Internet Address it must be sent in a MIME format. Therefore if the e-mail originated in 'Rich Text' format the server must convert it to MIME format.

Client Settings

The setting in your Location Document determines whether e-mails addressed to 'Internet Address' are sent in 'Rich Text' or MIME from the client to the server.

Server Setting

The setting in the 'Configuration' document on the server informs the server how it should convert 'Rich Text' emails into MIME.
