And as I said in my blog yesterday, many Notes houses don't bother upgrading the designs of their systems.
I did a project last year for a major formerly British based Steel company who use Notes as their major system. And I was rather surprised to see that they still used a Version 4 mail file design.
Imagine the shock I gave them when I told some of the users how to upgrade their own mail files.
Strictly speaking I had no right to do that. But the Notes client they were using and the server their mail files were on were all of the same newer version, it was just that their mail files had never been upgraded. This is partly the reason Notes gets such bad press.
I even gave a couple of the users in the office their own colour coded versions of their mail. Not that I could ever sit their staring at a Pink coloured mail system. 0_0
