Understand Mail Agents

Group, I have tested a mail agent that sends a copy of all my mail to an external email account - all works. Two questions I have:

1)Is there a way to programmatically bring in the subject of the mail that will be forwarded? When I created the mail agent, I added a subject of “LOTUS MAIL”, so everything forwards with LOTUS MAIL as a subject. I would rather carry the existing subject line over.

2)As I put this into production for others, if I am a “designer” of their mail database and create this agent, should I expect any authority problems? I’m assuming designer access to any mail database will allow me create and run this agent for the user.

Subject: mail agents

You can programatically get the subject. I assume you are getting the current memo somehow so it would be something like

newmaildoc.subject = currentmemo.subject(0)

As long as you have designer access to their mail and the ability to create agents ticked, and the ability to run them on the server, then you will be fine access wise.

Depending on how you are getting and sending the new mail though it may say it has come from you, rather than them, make sure in testing that you handle that.
