Moving from cc:Mail to Lotus Domino R5 Moving ... - IBM Redbooks

• Overwrite existing passwords with random passwords:
Not supported for cc:Mail — leave unchecked.
• Add cc:Mail name to Notes Person document (required for cc:Mail
MTA):
The User name field of a Person document in Notes lists one or more full
names. The first name in this field is the primary Notes name. In
addition to this primary name, the User name field can contain
secondary entries, which serve as aliases for the user and can be used in
addressing mail. The migration tool imports the cc:Mail user name for
use as secondary Notes name.
• Allow addition of empty groups to Notes:
Groups selected for import are considered empty if they do not contain
any members who can be registered in Notes. By default, the migration
tool does not import empty groups. Check this option if you want the
migration tool to import empty groups — you might want to add users
into the empty groups after the migration.
• Add administrator to mail file access control list:
During the migration process, the administrator ID you are using is
temporarily added to the ACL of each mail file with Manager access.
After you successfully migrated users, this administrator name is
removed from the ACLs of the mail files and is replaced with the name
of the mail file owner. As a result, you cannot open the user’s mail file
after the initial migration. You are also not able to migrate additional
mail to it.
When the “Add administrator to mail file access control list” option is
selected, the administrator name will not be removed from the user’s
mail files after the migration process is completed.
Caution Make sure you don’t forget to remove the administrator name
from the user’s mail files after you are done with the migration. New
Notes users might not like the idea to have some administrator’s name in
their mail file ACL, having Manager access!
• Convert mail:
Domino Upgrade Services provides you with the option to convert
existing cc:Mail mail files into Notes mail files. By default, this option is
enabled. If you choose to convert mail, during the registration process,
the migration tool automatically converts cc:Mail mail files to Notes mail
files.
If you disable the option Convert mail, the migration tool will only
register your cc:Mail users in Notes and create their mail files. No mail
will be migrated from cc:Mail to Notes.
