Please log in for more thread options Did anyone resolve this problem? I have installed WDS and the Notes plug-in
now (in Jan 2007!) and it does not appear to have indexed my Notes archives.
These archives are stored locally and the files appear in the Lotus Notes
preferences "files to index" under "localhost".
My primary notes mail database has been indexed fine.
thanks
