| Field | Information to enter |
| Mail file location | Select "on Server" to use your mail file directly on a server at the location or select Local to use a local replica of your mail file at the location. When you use a local replica, Notes stores mail you send in an outgoing mailbox until replication occurs. |

| Recipient name lookup | Select "Stop after first match" to have Notes find only the first name that matches the recipient name when you send mail from this location. Select "Exhaustively check all address books" to have Notes find all of the names that match the recipient name and ask you which one to use. |

Select "Local and Server" to show any Domino directories on your home server in the "Choose address book" list in various dialog boxes that let you select people, for example, Select Addresses or Select Names.
Note The local address books that appear in this list are specified in your User Preferences, Mail. For more information, see To change your address book. |

You can force all mail to be sent by replicating the Send Outgoing Mail entry on the Replicator page. |
