Seem like Lotus Notes is painfully slow? Replication may help.

Some of our computers were setup without our email and Applied Materials address books replicated to the `local` server. To set this up.

 * If you can just select to use the local version great, but if you can't then you will need to continue following these directions to create it. If you can you may want to skip down to the instructions regarding the replication schedule to make sure those have been setup properly.

 * So right click and create the replica. Note the location that it was creating the replicate. In my case it was '''MAIL/AB'''. The location is based on the first initial of your last name. I used this same location later when replicating the address book. These files are located in your "Documents And Settings/!YourName/Local Settings/Application Data/Lotus/Notes/Data/"

 * Notice the replication status at the bottom of the window? Wait patiently this could take a while. You may want to switch back to the original server for a while if you need to read your mail. You can also proceed with the next steps too.

 * Now setup so that it will periodically replicate. First go into the settings menu option.

 * On the basic tab check that you want to use the high priority schedule.

 * Click '''Change Schedule''' and setup your replication schedule as follows. '''Important: You only have one replication schedule for ALL replications on this database. You can only choose if that replication uses the priority or normal schedules.'''

 * Now create the replica for the address book. I had to change the path since there is already a names.nsf file in the default location. I choose to put it right next to the mail database on my local server.

 * Setup this replication to use the normal schedule since you don't need your address book updated every minute. You may even want to consider changing the normal schedule to have a longer interval.
