I have read through the forum on mail-in databases and have a question. If I want several email address to go to one database how do I set it up? I read something about personal document, but I have never set up a pers doc. Is this something the Notes Admin should know?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Cindy,
Yes, an admin should know.
The point is to not make person records, because those are used for so much more. Just make a mail-in db record (or 2 or 3) and those docs have only like 8 fields. You just specify the name and the NSF path.

Decide how many e-mail addresses youwant for the mail-in database. Open the Domino Directory to the Mail-in Databases view and find the database record and highlight it. Now go to Edit > Copy, then go to Edit > Paste and repeat for as many e-mail addresses you want. Now open each pasted doc and change the Mail-in database name to make it unique then add your new internet e-mail address for each one. Can’t be much clearer then that.

Sorry for asking, but I don’t wear the Admin hat that often. I have a huge project and before I start building, I just want to make sure. I am building a database to handle all our incoming mail from our site and our customers.
I can see what you mean, you would just make numerous copies of the same database give it a unique name and put the internet email address in but keep the file name the same (test.nsf).
Thank you all again for your help and patience.

Sorry to sound so stupid, but I will put on my Admin hat now and ask what you mean by mail-in db record? I can make more than one mail-in db document within Admin and name it the same?
I really appreciate your help.

Create new mail-in db (or 2, or 3, … )
Is that what you were asking?
