Lotus Training Overview

This course teaches you how to be immediately productive in the Lotus Notes® 6.5 mail and calendar.

During this course you send and reply to electronic mail using Notes. Once you have the basics of mail mastered, you will learn some of the options available when you send mail. Because mail is a key business application, you will learn how to organize mail into folders.
