Notes can use multiple TCP connections for a Notes session, but they are
always going to destination port 1352 from some high source port. This is
the case in both server-to-server and client-to-server connections, so
filtering Notes is no big deal. The only problem is that you cannot filter
on any of the RPC stuff, because everything is mux-ed inside those TCP
connections.

Also make sure your name translation (Notes->DNS) is working (hint: NAB or
Mobile->Server Phone Numbers).
