Setting up Notes SMTP MTA

Introduction

While the SMTP MTA component was an add-on in Notes/Domino 4.5, it is now part of Notes 4.6.x. If you didn't select it while installing the server originally, re-launch an install, and select SMTP MTA to be installed.

Basically, you just need to create a directory where incoming and ougoing (SMTP.BOX) messages will be handled. Once SMTP MTA is installed, create or modifiy the documents below, and run SMTP MTA.
