== About Modifying the Lotus Notes Mail Template ==

Cisco Unified MeetingPlace for Lotus Notes adds Cisco Unified MeetingPlace features to the Lotus Notes interface by modifying the default Lotus Notes mail template (for example, mail6.ntf). During installation, a modified version of this template (mail''xx_x''MP.ntf) is placed on your integration server in "Files to be put in your Domino server data directory."

After installation, you have two options for integrating the two template files:
* Copy the mail''xx_x''MP.ntf template file to the data directory on your Domino server.
: After copying the template file, deploy the template to your Lotus Notes clients to make the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace interface available to your users.
* Use the mail''xx_x''MP.ntf template file to manually modify the mail6.ntf file or mail7.ntf file.
: The mail''xx_x''MP.ntf file contains the extra LotusScript code that you will need to add to the base mail template.
: After modifying your mail template with the new code, copy it to your Domino server and roll out the template to your users.

== How to Modify the Lotus Notes Mail Template ==

If you decide to modify the Lotus Notes mail template yourself, follow these guidelines:
* To reduce the risk of typographic errors, copy and paste the required LotusScript code sections from mail6x_xxMP.ntf or mail7x_xxMP.ntf directly into your mail template.
* Do not modify existing LotusScript code. Add the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace code sections only to existing code in the template.

Do the following procedures to make changes to the Lotus Notes mail template:
