100 maximum rules for Notes Clients

There seems to be a limit on the number of mail rules a notes client can have. I can’t find a place to change this limit. Is it even possible to change this?

Pardon me for asking, but why on earth would you want so many rules, especially considering that a single rule can contain multiple conditions?

Cheers…

I agree. The user has all the rules to help with spam. Im working with him now to combine some of the rules. However, i am still curious of this limit can be changed.

rules are stored in the calendar profile, so I suppose the limit is the limit of a summary item and I don’t think it could be changed without a design modification

Hope this helps

This is hard coded in ND6 server You can reduce it using a NOTES.INI setting MailMaxFilters= Apparently there is an enhancement request (#IMA05GRR8K ) but I suspect that there is a problem regarding the performance of the Router which has to check all of the rules prior to delivering mail

Regardless of the ini setting (which still is not fully supported within the Lotus code itself) there is a hard 64kb limit for the client rule code… the code for all rules must be less than 64kb which with multiple conditions can be reached fairly easily.

The r6/r7 server doesn’t have the limitation.
