"Show Server Names" On R5 Bookmarks

The R5 "bookmark" interface has received a somewhat lukewarm reception from
most of the Notes administrators I know, and one reason for that is the fact
that the icons in the bookmark window give no indication of which server
they're on.

In v5.02b and later, Lotus added a new option to "Show Server Names" in the
bookmarks just like you can on the workspace, but the option is somewhat hidden.

Click the "Favorite Bookmarks" or "Databases" icon on the left panel to open a
bookmark window, and then click on the arrow in the upper left of that window,
and you'll find the "Show Server Names" option there. This option can also be
used to toggle the display of URLs in the IE and NetScape bookmarks areas.
