Help for Lotus Notes 8 (basic configuration) - Deleting Location, Account, or Connection documents

LOCATIONS AND ACCOUNTS

Deleting Location, Account, or Connection documents
Caution Deleting a Location, Connection, or Account document can harm essential parts of your connections to IBM® Lotus® Notes® mail, Internet mail, or Internet newsgroups, or make it impossible for Lotus Notes to connect you to a server you need. If you want to experiment with extra locations, connections, or accounts, copy existing documents and paste and rename test copies, so you can later delete the test versions without disturbing the originals.

1. Do one of the following:

To delete a Location document, click File > Locations > Manage Locations.
To delete an Account document, click Contacts in the Open list and then click View > Advanced > Accounts.
To delete a Connection document, click Contacts in the Open list and then click View > Advanced > Connections.

2. Click the document you want to delete and click Delete.

Note

If you delete an IMAP Online account, you are asked whether you also want to delete its associated IMAP proxy application. If you delete an NNTP newsgroup account, you are asked whether you also want to delete its associated newsgroup application. To save storage space, click

Yes to All

. The applications are not useful without the accounts.

3. From the menu, click View > Refresh.
