The Recipients Address Book window is located at the top left of Compose View, titled Send To. The Recipients Address Book window contains all the address books defined within OfficeTalk. The first address book listed in this window contains a list of all local OfficeTalk users. Any of the users listed may be selected as recipients of a message by simply double clicking on the relevant user(s). If there are any remote workgroups defined, the Recipients Address Book will contain expandable entries representing those remote workgroups. Expanding a remote workgroup entry will give you access to all the users held within that remote workgroup. Double clicking on any of the remote users will select those users as recipients of a message.
The Recipients Address Book contains an entry called 'Contacts'. Double clicking on this entry will pop up the Contact Address Book which contains a list of contacts for which you have specified an e-mail address. For more information see the The Contact Address Book.
If you have access to any Contact Groups held in the Workgroup, then the Recipients Address Book will contain a Contact Groups entry. Expanding this entry will show a list of Contact groups. Double clicking on a contact group will select all contacts that belong to the contact group and who have e-mail addresses, as recipients of the message.
OfficeTalk provides a MAPI e-mail service and a VIM e-mail service for tight integration with Microsoft and Lotus messaging systems. If you are logged on to the MAPI or VIM Mail services, then the Recipients Address Book will contain a MAPI Address Book and/or a VIM Address Book. Double clicking on either address book displays a dialog box, letting you select MAPI or VIM recipients. For more information, see The MAPI and VIM Address Books.
