The instructions below explain how to access Lotus Notes using iNotes through an Internet browser.

1. Establish an active Internet connection.

2. Open Internet Explorer and go to www.fhsu.edu (the FHSU home page). (You may attempt to use other Internet browsers, but they are not recommended. Use of Internet Explorer is supported by Lotus Notes.)

3. Click on Faculty & Staff (at the top of the page), and then click on E-mail (Lotus Notes) (on the left side).

4. Type in your Lotus Notes User Name and Password. If you have not changed your LN Internet password, it is defaulted to the last four digits of your social security number. Both entries are case sensitive. We strongly recommend changing your LN Internet password at your first opportunity. Instructions for doing so are located at: www.fhsu.edu/ctc/helpdesk/changing_ln_passwords.shtml

Notes:  If you are not listed in a "group" mailing list on Lotus Notes (such as the Faculty, Staff, or
Retired lists), you may need to use a special Web page address to access your e-mail. We also recommend that everyone be in at least one group list so that they will receive system maintenance notices. Please contact the CTC HelpDesk for further assistance.
5. Your mail file will open, displaying links to your mail and calendar folders. At this point, you can create a bookmark or shortcut to this page for future use.
