Modifying the LotusInboxCleanup agent

chatAlmar Diehl   3 January 2010 11:39:40
In Lotus Notes 8.x a new feature has been added: Mail Inbox Maintenance. This is a great feature to automatically remove documents older then X days from the Inbox. There is however one issue that a lot of users are experiencing, the documents are being removed from the Inbox and after that can only be found in the All Documents view. It would be great if the documents where moved from the Inbox the a specified view, making it easier for a user to find them.

Ofcourse it would be great if IBM added this functionality to the LotusInboxCleanup agent, but as long as they have not here is how to implement it yourself.
  • Open the LotusInboxCleanup from your mailfile in the designer client,
  • In the Declarations section add a constant containing the folder to which you want to move the documents

  • In the Public Class cInboxCleanup add the following to lines to the Public Sub Clean

Of course it is best to make the modifications the the mail-template.

Super tip !

Just tested it. Works great.

We will implement this with the extra folder option.

It would be nice if IBM added this functionality to the agent, so I don't have to modify the agent after every upgrade.

Thanks !
