Before running the Domino Server setup, be sure to thoroughly review Preparing for the Installation for setup information and requirements.

The installation procedure covered in this section applies only to Domino servers running on a Windows platform, and using the standard Notes Mail template. The Windows-based Domino/FaxPress Integration Script installation program customizes the Domino Standard R5 Mail template (mail50.ntf) only.

For Domino servers using customized, non-standard Notes mail templates, (e.g., iNotes Web Access Mail template) or running on non-Windows platforms, see the manual setup procedure covered in Integration Script Setup for Non-Standard Mail Templates.

The setup for Domino servers using standard Notes mail templates involves the following four steps:

1. Running the FaxPress/Domino server integration script. This copies the necessary faxpress.nsf and Mail50.ntf files to the Lotus\Domino\Data directory, and distributes the new design to the Notes mail clients.
2. Assigning access rights to faxpress.nsf and Mail50.ntf files.
3. Using the FaxPress Admin Console utility to specify:
the Domino server name
the Administrator account name
the Lotus Notes Gateway account
