You can customize IBM® Lotus Notes® so that it runs and displays just the way you want it to using Notes® preferences.

Preferences are organized by category, including the following main areas:

• Mail, Calendar and To Do, and Contacts
• Replication
• Roaming
• Sametime® Connect
• Symphony presentation, spreadsheet, and document editors (if you install this feature)
