Overview
The IBM (Lotus) Domino/Notes platform is...'unpopular to many'. It is safe to say that while there are still companies that continue to use this software (to various extents), there is likely a very low uptake of new buy-ins. This article is not a recommendation for migration off of the Domino platform, but rather a discussion of its limitations. (Over time, they will become one and the same.-norwizzle (talk) 16:40, 26 September 2017 (PDT))
Limitations
- Hosted on the business server
- What initially was a good idea (because we got more utility from a very expensive server by also using it to do mail), is now perhaps no longer one.
- Non-proprietary mail server structure necessitating a separate mail server software as a gateway for inbound/outbound external mail. Domino mail routing is proprietary, while 99% of other email uses the common protocols POP, IMAP and SMTP.
