In order to easily recognize emails from specific senders, Lotus Notes allows you to color code messages based on who the sender is.
To configure this, open your mail file and on the Action bar click Tools - Preferences.
Next select Mail - Colors. You can define three different sets of colors, and each set can contain multiple names.
There are many ways to configure your preferences. You could put your management chain in one color, your employees in another, and your teammates in the third. You could friends in one color, and family in another. You could also choose to define senders based on important projects you are working on. The point is, you can define the color coding in the way that best fits how you want to work.

wow that was the dumbest article ever. I know that L-notes does all this, but i came here to find out HOW to do it. Not your stupid rant on what it does. Waste of time to even post what you did.
Also you dont specify the version of L-notes you are talking about. The sentence you gave on how to do it is useless. You should quit your day job and do this full time NOT.
I have no idea what the previous commenter is smoking because these instructions worked great for me. I always forget how to do this, so when I get a new project every 3-6 months or so, it takes me forever to figure out how to add folks with a new color set-up. Glad that this helpful article came up pretty high on "color code lotus notes email". Thanks
This was the simplest explain. Good Job. Got what I needed to do.
For those using IBM Lotus Notes 8.5,
configuring colors is a little bit different.
1) Open Inbox
2) Choose: Action->More->Preferences
3) Choose "Sender Color" tab
4) Configure colors.
Cheers.
