I saw the Dennis Leary / Dragnet-spoof commercial over the weekend and
had a tremendous feeling of "Wow!  They're really advertising Internet
firewalls on network TV now?".

But isn't Lotus Domino(TM) really just a variant of a "hopefully" secure
Web server?  Looking over the Lotus Domino web pages (http://domino.lotus.com)
I don't see any mention of any "firewall" type features -- not even http
proxying capability -- though Domino does appear to be a useful application
gateway to/from Lotus Notes and has some e-mail integration capabilities
(MAPI, POP3, IMAP).
