Refresh Mailed-in Document in Lotus Notes

I am having a serious brain cramp right now since I don't think I have done this in 10 years...maybe I never did but I THINK I did lol.

I have a new mail-in database. When mail comes in, either from Lotus Notes, from an outside mail system, like gmail, or from a text message from a cell phone, I want to refresh that document so that a couple fields get set based on the SMPTOriginator that the mail is from. I thought I would do it with an agent that runs before mail arrives, but that didn't work. I tried after mail arrives and that also didn't work. I need it to runn almost immediately after the document arrives because they are getting emergency responders to reply ASAP and I need these documents to refresh as they come in.

Can someone point me in the right direction...this is something that I know I have done in the past, I just can't remember.

Maybe you just don't have the necessary rights to run the agent. In any case, when the agent is correctly placed and the mail db receives a mail, the agent is started by the server (either the Agent Manager or the Router), and if the agent isn't started there is a message in the log.nsf database. Check there.

I would think the events you tried would have worked, but perhaps they are only for mail databases, and not mail-in databases.

Anyway, you could use the "After documents are created or modified" trigger, although that won't run immediately. It runs about every 5 minutes, I believe.

You might also create a scheduled agent. If the process isn't very long, you might be able to get away with it running every, say, 2 minutes.
