I completely agree about Lotus, however this does not solve the problem. That is,<br>
there will be unfortunate people like that (1) like Mercurial as it directly supports<br>
mail integration besides other DSCM goodies and (2) are forced to live in a <br>
Windows/Notes world. If Mercurial could just include the features I've described <br>
as options or config parameters that would be the default (on Windows) when <br>
Notes is detected, then its usability/competitiveness would be improved tremendously<br>
w.r.t. other DSCMs.<br>
<br>
BTW, we are not even allowed to use other clients with Notes via POP3/IMAP...<br>

Personally, I find the only working solution to Lotus Notes is rebellion. It<br>
is so horribly broken that working around its flaws is a waste of time. My<br>
employers push it, but I've found refuge in Mozilla Thunderbird and Mutt. <br>
