    Question Using GTD with Lotus Notes a newbie question

    Hi All,

    I am a GTD newbie in all sense of the word as I am only now reading the books & blogs on the subject.

    As I work though I would like to start putting the techniques into practice, but I have hit my first obsticle and I look to you skilled GTD'ers to point me in the right direction.

    Background:
    The company I work for are a Lotus Notes shop and I like Notes, however at home I use Outlook for mail and some basic calender functions, So I recently looked at the GTD-Addin for Outlook and thought that this looked great.

    So I thought I would be really clever and use the Outlook connector for Domino (a small patch from Mr Gates that allows Outlook to act as the email client for a Lotus Notes mail). I thought this would allow me to merge my 2 mail systems into 1.

    The bad news, the GTD-Addin seems to have the path to the INBOX hard coded as the main folder for the creation of the @Action, @Defer sub-folders. Whilst Lotus Notes does not permit subfolders to be created under the INBOX.

    So my question?
    Does anybody out there know how or if the GTD-Addin can be reconfigured to have a different main folder or create different paths for the sub-folders.


    Alternatively, if anybody as any tips & tricks for implementing GTD under notes I would be very very happy to hear them

    Thanks in advance

    a newbie to the world of GTD
