Chapter 2  Getting Started - A MeetingPlace Overview

9

To allow users to schedule and attend meetings through their 
groupware client, MeetingPlace integrates with Microsoft 
Outlook and Lotus Notes.

A user can schedule meetings directly from his Outlook or Notes 
calendar. MeetingPlace is able to use an organization’s existing 
Exchange or Domino server to deliver meeting notifications to 
the invited users. If a user chooses to accept a meeting request, 
the meeting automatically appears in their Outlook or Notes 
calendar. When it comes time to join a meeting, a user can attend 
it through the Outlook or Notes interface. 

For more information, refer to the MeetingPlace for Outlook 
System Manager’s Guide or the MeetingPlace for Notes System 
Manager’s Guide.

MeetingPlace Directory Services enables MeetingPlace to 
communicate with your LDAP-compliant corporate directory 
server. This allows you to create, update and delete MeetingPlace 
profiles based on information stored on your directory server. 
This seamless integration helps you manage MeetingPlace 
profiles, minimize MeetingPlace maintenance, and increase 
MeetingPlace security.  

For more information, refer to the MeetingPlace Directory 
Services System Manager’s Guide.

The MeetingPlace E-mail Gateway enables a MeetingPlace 
system to communicate with an organization’s existing e-mail  
server. This communication allows MeetingPlace to notify 
participants and distribute meeting materials via e-mail.

This gateway can either reside on the same system as your e-mail  
server or on a separate Windows server.
