Out Of Office - Do not automatically reply to mail addressed to groups - lotus-notes

There used to be an option when setting Out Of Office to prevent automatic replies for mail addressed to groups. It no longer appears to be available in Notes 10/11 Does anyone know how to achieve this functionality, it seems quite a basic requirement so I feel I am missing something?
Many thanks.
As it was in Notes 7.

How do you enable excel add-ins for all users using registry (HKLM)?

I'm trying to enable an excel add-in for all users in a given lab (Office 2019 is installed). The path to the add-in's "OPEN" string in the registry is HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\options. Before scripting anything for deployment, I'm just trying to manually test where I can enable that same add-in for HKLM and have it work for another test user.
I've tried creating my own key for the add-in under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\Addins (Addins is a key I added manually), however so far I haven't had any luck.
I've seen other people mention this issue in other posts, but the answers weren't very clear to me and many of these posts were from 5+ years ago, so I'm hoping there's a more up-to-date solution I can utilize. Please let me know if you have any knowledge on this particular problem. Thank you!
I'm a bit of a noob with this sort of thing still, so thorough (even verbose) answers are extremely appreciated.
This is a per user delegation. You need to use a GPO to set the reg key for the users as they login.

API for Tracking changes / viewing revisions for Microsoft Word

In Microsoft Word, there is an option to track changes/view revisions pertaining to a specific document. I would like to know if there is any API to access those changes via an Office Add-In.
Also, via this link, the consensus is that there is no such API available. But since, this is an old post, we would like to know if the situation has changed.
Furthermore, according to this link, there is the presence of Reviewer object for VBA shown. However, is it valid for Office Add-In? If yes, Is it supported in other programming languages like Node.js. If it does, are there any code samples available?
The functionality you are asking about is still not supported in the JavaScript API for Word. Please make sure to add this request (or vote for an existing one) in our user voice channel. thanks.

Problem posting emails to Sharepoint

We currently have a form for posting information with email to discussionboards in Sharepoint.
They have exaxtly the same settings for receiving emails. For some reason some of them gets the posted content and some don't. They seems to get to SMTP correctly and are shown in the Drop folder but then seems to dissapear without being added to the discussion boards.
The SMTP logs look a little strange as they contains addresses but no commands.
Anyone that can point me in the right direction?
It seems only two out of 20 discussion boards was connected to their incoming email addresses even though they all hade proper settings.
Removed the email settings for the two that was working, renamed all existing discussion boards and created new ones with the same settings and now it works.

SharePoint - set reply-to in a workflow

I have my SharePoint server set to send e-mails from a dedicated e-mail box. However, I have a workflow that sends an e-mail out to a particular group, and I want replies from that group to go instead to a different e-mail box.
I know that BCC is a hidden field in a workflow that can be changed; I don't see anything for reply-to. So I'm not sure that there's an easy way to do it. What options do I have? I know there's a tool on CodePlex that does a lot with e-mail activities, but I think that might be overkill.
I appreciate any suggestions, advice, etc. Thanks very much!
Basically, you can't specify a reply-to email address using SharePoint Designer out of the box. Since it is a workflow, you can create a Custom Workflow action that would allow you to do anything you want (including send an email with a reply-to address). This is a pretty involved process and will require C# code.

Lotus Notes Authentication

I want to setup Lotus Notes on my laptop to mess around with it. I am trying to setup my email, but my email through verizon.net requires authentication. I have it setup in Outlook 07, but Outlook does not have support for Databasing. Does anyone know how to setup authentication for outgoing email in Lotus Notes, let alone is it possible?
In your personal address book in Lotus Notes (File > Database > Open > names.nsf), go to the Advanced > Accounts section and create a new account. You'll need to create one count for POP and one account for SMTP to send and receive email. There are fields in those forms where you can put the authentication info.
Ken is correct, but I would like to counter Todd's remark (although I didn't vote you down, Todd).
Saying that Notes is crappy because it is not a RDBMS is like saying SQL is crappy because it is not a Network Operating System. Notes is tremendously powerful at what it does - indeed, it has no rival. Visual Studion + WinForms is in no way equivalent. There are things you can do in either Notes or a RDBMS - sometimes one platform will be better, sometimes the other.
Enjoy, Mark.
Ken Pespisa's answer is correct.
However, you need to understand that the nsf (Notes Databases) are completely flat files. They are in no way relational. Believe me, there are plenty of ways you can squeeze relational data into a notes database and everyone of them will leave you with TONS of maintanince nightmares and crappy data.
Mitch's comment to you is dead on, just mess around with SQL Server Express or MySQL. If you want the RAD aspect of Notes, just use Visual Studio with WinForms or something.
