IBM Lotus Notes E-mail Hosting – Shared
Now clustered for high-availability!
Our primary shared E-mail solution includes Lotus Notes mail databases based on the standard Notes mail templates. These databases are widely used by our customers around the globe and include many standard features including:
- Robust security features that can help minimize or eliminate the impact of computer viruses
- Features designed to help users manage their ever-growing mailboxes more effectively, including full-text search.
- Industry-leading calendar and scheduling capabilities
- Advanced replication technology that allows users to be productive and efficient even when they are disconnected from the network.
In order to maintain a reliable and high performance environment, mail databases are not hosted on Domino servers running custom applications. Prominic runs dedicated mail servers, increasing uptime and providing better segmentation of our services.
With the release of Domino 7, we are now clustering all Domino 7 mail accounts at no additional charge to you. Your mail database will be set up on two separate Domino servers on two physically separate machines, resulting in much higher reliability and better uptime.

Please keep in mind that you're required to have at least a Domino Messaging or Messaging Express client access license from IBM. Contact our Sales department if you need to purchase software licenses from Prominic.NET or if you have general questions about IBM Lotus licensing.
IBM Lotus Notes E-mail Hosting – Partitioned
The Domino Messaging Partition supports full use of the IBM Lotus Domino E-mail functionality including E-mail, calendaring, scheduling and collaborative applications such as the discussion forum, document library and any templates that come standard with the Domino server. This server does not include an entitlement to run Domino applications, so standard application hosting is not allowed. The Messaging Partition is licensed in the traditional user-based client-server model, where customers purchase a client access license (CAL) for each authenticated user of the server.
Customers looking for full application hosting should review our comprehensive line of Production (Partitioned) server packages
