Tip Users remain in the Registration queue until registered or specifically
removed. You can save users in the queue for later registration. All
the settings are preserved.
Before we register the users, let us first look at how you migrate public
mailing lists.
Migrating Public Mailing Lists (Groups) from cc:Mail to Domino
Important The term “Group” is not known in the cc:Mail system. The
equivalent for a group is a public mailing list in cc:Mail. So whenever we use
the term “Group” in this redbook, we are actually talking about a cc:Mail
public mailing list. You will also find the term “Groups” being used in the
user interface of the cc:Mail Migration tools — just substitute it with public
mailing lists.
With the Domino migration tool, you can migrate cc:Mail public mailing lists
and their members from cc:Mail to Domino. The migration tool supports the
migration of Local users, which are members of a public mailing list in that
same directory. When you select a public mailing list (Group) for migration,
the Local users in this list are always selected for migration, too.
The migration tool will search the Domino Directory to determine whether
the name of any selected group duplicates the name of an existing Notes
group. If the group name you selected for migration appears to be unique,
the migration tool will create a Notes group according to the settings chosen
in the Group Migration Options window. If the migration tool finds that the
group name selected already exists in the Domino Directory, the Existing
Group Migration Options window will appear, allowing you to specify how
to process the duplicate group.
The following guides you through the additional steps neccessary when you
have groups in your cc:Mail directory and you decide to use them for the
migration process.
