Email using NRPC from external application

Hello,

We want to contact a Domino Server to send and receive emails from an application written in C#. The server only uses NRPC and I wonder if there are any adapters out there which we could use? Is there another solution?

How do people usually connect to the Domino Server from external applications if no SMTP or IMAP is present?

Kind regards

Subject: Collect and send emails from external application

Hello again,

Thank you for the insight. I don’t need to use NRPC, I need to collect and send emails. Today NRPC is used on port 1352 and it would be easier if no changes had to be done on the Domino Server.

I haven’t programmed for Lotus Notes in 10 years though I have actually used it some. How do you present a lotusscript so that I can collect and send emails through it from an external application on another server? Are there any good examples of this?

Thank you.

your ‘other server’ would need a notes client installed.

John Head from PSD is most likely a good source in case you have a budget.

I don’t know if it’s even possible to do what you’re asking, because it seems to me that what you’re trying to do is write a plug-in that stands on its own, without actually plugging in to a Notes client or Domino server.

So I would just use SMTP for this. We have several internal non-Domino applications which relay mail to (and through) our Domino network over SMTP.
