Wrong Mail address reflecting in email address lookup while drafting mails


People find issue with the Lotus Notes 8.x when they draft the eMail. They get automatic list name that they have wrongly added, in there past mails. 


Solution for this issue is you need to clear your recent contact from your address book, or you can disable this feature.


Recent Contacts feature can be disabled using any of the following methods: 


1. Use the following parameter in the client's notes.ini file: 
DisableDPABProcessing=1 


2. Make changes in the Contacts section of the user preferences: 
- Select File --> Preferences. 
Choose Contacts on the left 
- Select "Do not automatically add names to the Recent Contacts view" on the right. 


3. Switch to Notes Basic type-ahead: 
In the main Notes menu, select File --> Preferences. 
Choose Basic Notes Client Configuration on the left. 
In the additional options, check "Disable type-ahead for all name fields and use the Notes Basic type-ahead". 


This reverts the type-ahead feature back to the Notes V6 and V7 type-ahead functionality and does not pull entries from the Recent Contacts view. 


You can also implement this change using a Desktop policy on the Preferences --> Miscellaneous tab. The setting is "Disable type-ahead for all name fields and use the Notes Basic type-ahead".



Note: These methods will prevent new entries from being added to the Recent Contacts view. If you already have existing Recent Contacts, they will continue to be suggested by type-ahead unless you delete the contents of the Recent Contacts view.

Use Pen Drive as ram memory in windows 7

Hi friends, Windows 7 and Windows vista comes with a ready boost option. 

"ReadyBoost" is a disk cache component of Microsoft Windows, first introduced with Microsoft's Windows Vista in 2006 and bundled with Windows 7 in 2009. It works by using flash memory, a USB flash drive, SD card, CompactFlash or any kind of portable flash mass storage system as a cache.
If you are using a high configuration PC, It doesn't show any effect on speed because if you are a normal user I think only a few times you use your full ram memory but if you are using an old pc with low ram memory(Like 512 MB or IGB) and harddisk & using vista or 7. It speed up your PC and you will see the result, reduced application data loading time, reduced shutdown and restart time and many more you can't imagine without High ram memory. How to use this feature

  • Plug in your pendrive-> Format with NTFS or FAT32
  • Now go to properties->Select ReadyBoost
  • Check Use this device->Choose maximum space to reserve system speed
  • Click on Apply and OK. 
Your readyboost PenDrive is ready Now to Use.
