In IBM Lotus Notes, users can include document links, anchor links, view links, or database
links (application links) in their email messages. BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 4.1 SP6
supports IBM Lotus Notes links in the email messages that users receive on their BlackBerry
devices. The BlackBerry Enterprise Server retrieves the target information from the appropriate
IBM Lotus Domino server and converts it into HTTP format. In plain text messages, the link
appears as a web address. In HTML messages, the link appears as an icon.
Users can click the HTTP links to view documents, folders, views, or database information in
the BlackBerry® Browser. If the target information is stored on a secure IBM Lotus Domino
server, the BlackBerry device might prompt users to type their login information after they click
the link.
This feature is turned on by default.

Lotus Notes Links on BlackBerry Devices document.
In previous versions of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, if users included hotspot links in their
email messages using IBM Lotus Notes, the BlackBerry Messaging Agent removed the links
from the messages before users received them on their BlackBerry devices.
In BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 4.1 SP6, the BlackBerry Messaging Agent retains the
hotspot links in the messages that users receive on their BlackBerry devices.
The BlackBerry Collaboration Service supports the Microsoft Office Communications Server
2007. BlackBerry Enterprise Server version 4.1 SP6 supports a new collaboration client for use
with this instant messaging server: the BlackBerry® Client for use with Microsoft Office
Communications Server 2007.
The BlackBerry Collaboration Service supports IBM Lotus Sametime version 8.0.
In previous versions of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server documentation, the BlackBerry
Applications used for instant messaging were referred to collectively as enterprise instant
messaging applications. BlackBerry Applications used for instant messaging are now referred
to collectively as collaboration clients.
The collaboration client that was previously named BlackBerry® Instant Messaging for
Microsoft® Office Live Communications Server 2005 is now named the BlackBerry® Client
for use with Microsoft® Office Live Communications Server 2005.
The collaboration client that was previously named BlackBerry® Instant Messaging for IBM®
Lotus® Sametime® is now named the BlackBerry® Client for IBM® Lotus® Sametime®.
The collaboration client that was previously named BlackBerry® Instant Messaging for
Novell® GroupWise® Messenger is now named the BlackBerry® Client for Novell®
GroupWise® Messenger.
