In the older versions of Lotus Domino we had 2 mail templates. Mail and domino web access.

The Mail being the supposedly "lighter" and "faster" template for web access to the mailbox and the Domino Web Access (DWA) being the rich  and slower one.

Then Lotus combined it all into one template and either using the Notes.ini file or the "ui=" at the end of the url we could switch between the 2 tempates. Despite that it did nothing to the speed.

A lot if us kept screaming "hey lotus. this is just web based access to email. make it lighter , make it faster".   And as always they took their time but they listened. Thank you Lotus.

Welcome to the new DWA in Lotus Domino 8.5 and its 3 different modes




This new version comes with 3 modes

Full Mode

Lite Mode

Ultralite Mode

Full Mode.


This is the good old DWA. Big and heavy with all the nice stuff and functionality

Lite Mode:


Just the basic mail and calendar functions. They have removed the options to access journals and other peoples calendars that
are available in the full version

Ultralite Mode



Now this is probably the fastest web access to any email I have ever seen ..Great job Lotus!!!.. In fact I feel access my mail over the web using the Ultralite mode is even faster than the client access on a LAN. Now go figure that one out.
