Hey there, I am trying to generate a code, which allows me to send an E-mail via lotus Notes. I am kinda stuck with the following problems, since i donīt know the api. If the E-mail is sent through perl it does not show in my lotus notes folder "sent". I would also like to have the feature before sending the mail, that it would open first, so I can take a quick look at it before sending. I am definetly not a geek when it comes to programming but this is what i got so far: Is there a good website for Lotus Notes Perl API. I canīt seem to find what I am looking for.

use strict;
use warnings;
use Win32::OLE;

    
my $Notes = new Win32::OLE('Notes.NotesSession')or die "$!: cannot sta
+rt Lotus Notes Session object.\n";
# my $Database = $Notes->GetDatabase('server1', 'db1\myown.nsf');

my ($Version) = ($Notes->{NotesVersion} =~ /\s*(.*\S)\s*$/);
print "The current user is $Notes->{UserName}.\n";
print "Running Notes \"$Version\" on \"$Notes->{Platform}\".\n";
# user dependent
my $Database = $Notes->GetDatabase('', 'mail444\Calcu.nsf') or die "$!
+: could not open database.\n";

if ($Database->IsOpen) 
{
  print "database is open\n";
}
else
{
  print "database is not open\n";
}

print "creating new document\n";
my $Document = $Database->CreateDocument('test') or die "$!: can't cre
+ate document";

if ($Document->IsNewNote) 
{
  print "document is new not saved\n";
}
else
{
  print "document is not new\n";
}


print "populating fields\n";

$Document->{'plain_text'} = 'E-MailTestViaPerl';
$Document->{'SendTo'} = 'yourMail@test.com';
$Document->{'Body'} = 'Carpe Diem. This is a Test';
$Document->{'Subject'} = 'Is it working?';


print "saving document\n";


$Document->Save (1, 1);
$Document->GetLastDocument;
$Document->Open();

$Document->Send(0);
printf "$Document\n";


if ($Document->Send){
print "Send";
}

I hope you can help me.

• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
