Info

Supported cc:Mail versions • Imports local users, groups and passwords from the post office (users in the directory whose locations are designated as L or R ) and creates entries for them in the Domino Directory. • Creates a Notes ID and mail file for imported users • Migrates the contents of mailboxes from the cc:Mail post office server • Converts Organizer 2.x for cc:Mail Group Scheduling files (.OR2 files) into Notes group scheduling format (.NSF) The cc:Mail to Notes migration tool supports migrating users who are currently using the cc:Mail Release 6.3x client. After the migration completes, the cc:Mail 6.3x client accesses a mail file on the Domino server, rather than a mailbox on the cc:Mail post office. There are two versions of the cc:Mail LAN post office database in use. They are commonly referred to as DB6 and DB8. The cc:Mail to Notes migration tool lets you migrate data from either database version. Upgrading from either version of the cc:Mail post office extracts information from the following: cc:Mail post office directory — The directory contains public post office information, including the post office name and directory entries, public mailing lists, and bulletin boards. Message file — The message store file keeps one copy of each message for all users in the post office. To save disk space, messages addressed to multiple users are stored just once in this file. Post office user files — The user files contain all private mailbox information, such as private mailing lists and folders. These files contain no messages, just pointers to the mail directory and message files. Organizer 2.x group scheduling files (.OR2 files) — For cc:Mail users who use Lotus Organizer 2.x, the OR2 files contain calendaring and scheduling information. Note Since the migration tools work exactly the same with cc:Mail DB6 and DB8 databases, we decided to use only DB8-based cc:Mail post offices when we wrote this redbook. What gets migrated from cc:Mail to Domino? The cc:Mail to Notes migration tool converts information in a cc:Mail post office to Notes/Domino, including mailboxes, messages, bulletin boards, and private and public directories, as shown in the following table. 50 Moving from cc:Mail to Lotus Domino R5

However, Notes does not assign a special status to migrated cc:Mail messages that were marked Low priority. ****During migration, rich text attributes such as color, font style, font size, underlining, boldface, bullets, embedded objects, and doclinks are not preserved. +Private mailing lists are automatically sent to users in a Notes message attachment. Users then run an Upgrade Wizard at their workstations to migrate these lists to their Notes Personal Address Books. The Upgrade Wizard also migrates private addresses that cc:Mail Release 2.x and 6.x clients maintain locally in the file PRIVDIR.INI. The Upgrade Wizard does not support migrating private addresses for cc:Mail Release 8.x clients. ++All migrated messages are marked unread.
