Can third-party email clients connect to a Lotus Notes (Domino) server?

Question

If I can't use the Lotus Notes client, can I use another third-party email client (Outlook, Mail.app, Thunderbird, etc.) to connect to a Domino server (either through plugins or a built-in option)?

Solution 1

So from my current understanding, it seems that Microsoft Outlook with an additional "add-on" is going to be the only other option besides Lotus Notes. The steps to install the additional add-on can be found on e-how.com.

Solution 2

Domino supports POP3, SMTP, IMAP.

Your question is unclear and the Edit appears to have the answer in it. The 4 clients mentioned all should be able to connect to the server if you have those services set up.

The ones you listed support POP3/IMAP as far as I recall.

I don't need POP3/IMAP support. As I said, not all environments support them. I need Domino support.

Whilst this may theoretically answer the question, it would be preferable to include the essential parts of the answer here, and provide the link for reference.

Thanks! It was a little hard to find the link, so I added it to your post as well, with another link to Microsoft's support page. We generally prefer first hand references instead of third party sites.
