Summary :
SAP Note announces the discontinuation of Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes integration with SAP software components based on NetWeaver '04 and SAP Web Application Server Release 6.40 or above. Maintenance support for earlier releases will continue until October 2005. The note advises migration to enhanced e-mail notification mechanisms that do not require specific mail clients, offering broader compatibility and reduced IT ownership costs. Upcoming upgrades will improve workflow item notifications and include advanced features like attachments integration in SAP GUI, flexible text formatting, and system-wide adjustments via substitutions and defined email templates. This migration aims to address limitations in Unicode support and complex deployment issues of previous solutions.
