Resource Objects

Resource objects are only available in the Advanced license version of NetMail® 3.5. For information, see the Novell® NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.

Resource objects represent shared resources such as conference rooms, training facilities, equipment, and so forth. By creating a Resource object in a supported NMAP context, the resource automatically has its own mailbox and calendar, allowing it to be scheduled for appointments.

To schedule a resource, users simply create an appointment and include the resource in the appointment’s list of scheduled attendees. Users can also busy search Resource objects’ calendars. The Resource object automatically accepts appointments that do not conflict with its calendar, or declines appointments that do.

To allow a user, such as an administrative assistant, to manage the resource’s mailbox and calendar, you can assign the user as a Resource Manager. This gives the user full rights to the resource’s mailbox, calendar, rules, preferences, and Personal Address Book.

For more information on scheduling resources, see the Novell NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.
