Lotus Notes tweaks: Toolbar buttons to file mail

Posted: - Modified: | lotus, productivity

I like the GTD way of managing mail, and I’ve created folders for this. The three folders I use the most are AA Next Action, AA Waiting, and Done. Dragging messages down to the right folder is more mouse work than I like, though. I created three buttons on a custom toolbar. For example, the action that moves the current message to my Done folder runs this:

@Command([Folder]; “Done”; “1”)

I’d love to associate these with keyboard shortcuts, or spend some time hacking my mail template. That would be even awesomer! =)

Sacha, I've done just what you describe - associated keyboard shortcuts with actions inside of Notes for speed and ease of use. I'm using Activewords which integrates with eProductivity but you may want to create your own solution. In any case, happy to discuss.
