Programatically opening an composite application

I have problems in programatically opening an composite application.The CA contains the standard ‘Notes-Mail-View’ and ‘Notes-Mail-Navigator’ components, all properties remain untouched.

When opening (programatically!) the CA, the Mail-View component shows ‘any’ view of the database instead of the users mail view.

Client version is 8.5.1, mail server version is 8.0.1.

Steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Create a new application using the ‘Blank Composite Application’ template

  2. Open CA Editor, drag´n´drop the ‘Notes Mail View’ component into the empty page, optional the ‘Nots Mail Navigator’ too.

  3. Save & close

  4. Test: Open the application: OK

  5. Create a new application using the ‘Blank’ template

  6. Create an agent and use LotusScript or @Formula to open the application created in step 1

  7. Test: Run the agent: The CA opens showing the ‘default view’ instead of the users mail view.

optional:

  1. Create some dummy view in the CA database.

  2. Close

  3. Select Menu > View > Go To… and choose one of the dummy views.

  4. Test: Run the agent: The CA opens showing the last view you´ve opened before

I´ve also put the CA in a frameset and tried ‘OpenFrameset’ (again both @formula and script) but got the same results, except that it´s a bit harder to reproduce.

Is there a workaround to this problem?

Any help is welcome, thanks in advance.
