Info

Aliases Aliases are created for users who receive mail from two or more different names. Aliases are sometimes used to temporarily forward mail from one user to another. Users that are aliased do not need to be located on the same post office. Considerations before the migration When upgrading any environment, the implementation team usually needs to ensure that all current functionality is provided in the new environment. This then leads us to the following issues that need to be addressed before the migration is started: • Gateways — the coexistence and migration of all current gateways needs to be addressed. Some gateways to consider would include SMTP, fax, pager, and X.400. • Stand-alone Organizer — with the integration of calendaring and scheduling in Notes/Domino, you will need to decide on what happens to Lotus Organizer. Organizer group scheduling can be migrated with the back-end migration tools provided by Domino R5, however, standalone Organizer needs to be migrated using the migration database that comes with the Notes R5 client. This is a user-operated tool. • VIM applications — any applications that use VIM calls to the cc:Mail post office will not work against a Domino directory. Application developers need time to recode applications so that the applications can talk to the Domino server. This includes applications that use the cc:Mail tools Import and Export. • Palm computers — will the facility for synchronizing palm computers with the new Domino environment be required? If so, the distribution and configuration of tools such as Easysync may be necessary. Summary This chapter addresses Domino administrators who require a quick overview of cc:Mail. We covered the general architecture of the product, and gave a short description of some of the key administration tools. We also provided a number of short descriptions of the major cc:Mail terminology. 6 Moving from cc:Mail to Lotus Domino R5
Chapter 2 Installing and configuring the cc:Mail MTA This chapter describes how your cc:Mail and Domino environments can coexist using the cc:Mail MTA. The following topics are covered: • Pre-installation tasks • Installing the cc:Mail MTA on Windows NT • Using the Configuration Assistant to configure the cc:Mail MTA • Customizing the cc:Mail MTA configuration • Summary Pre-installation tasks Before installing the cc:Mail MTA, there are several tasks you will need to perform first: 1. If you are upgrading from a previous release of the cc:Mail MTA, make sure all pending mail messages have been processed. Shut down the Notes Router, then, a few minutes later, stop the cc:Mail Router or Routers that communicate with the MTA. 2. Shut down the Domino server. 3. We recommend that you back up the Domino program and data directories. This information typically resides in the LOTUS\DOMINO and LOTUS\DOMINO\DATA directories, respectively. 4. Verify that you have Designer access to the Domino Directory. Note If you are upgrading from a previous release of the cc:Mail MTA, you also need Designer access to the MTA server database. 5. Make sure you remember your Domino server password if you specified one. 6. Make sure the Domino domain name is not the same as any post office name. If it is the same name, the post office will need to be renamed. 7. If you install the cc:Mail MTA on a server where another MTA is already installed, for example, the SMTP MTA, and you have modified the MTATBLS.NSF database for that MTA, make a copy of MTATBLS.NSF. 7
