The sound of a MIME and silencing him


Tags :


After upgrading to Domino 6, which seems like eons ago now, the server started yelling out "Begin MIME to CD conversion" and soon after "End MIME to CD Conversion".  It was like a foreman at a production line.  You could notice it right after running a Tell Adminp Process All command for those that want to test.  But you will see it only announces this on mailfiles and mail-in databases.

Well AdminP cannot read MIME, so it must convert all those documents for AdminP to work on them.  Apparently this has been going on even in Domino 5 but Lotus hid those conversational messages from the console and log files.  So the MIME got a voice.  No fear, you can quiet him back down to hand signals only, with of course a notes.ini variable
