To migrate from Lotus Notes Mails to Microsoft Exhcange Server

[Guest ViNC3 via WinServerKB.com]

Hi to all Pros out there,

 

I need to migrate emails from Lotus Notes mails to Exchange Server, due to

the company no longer wanted to use Lotus Notes.

so, i was planing like this.

 

Step 1. Install Exchange Server in the PDC ( Windows Server 2003 ).

Step 2. make sure the Exchange is up and steady, (test izzit working fine?)

Step 3. Migrate Lotus Mail to Microsoft Exchange Mails (by using some

freeware converter)

Step 4. Test see weather all the employee's Mails are working?

Step 5. backup the Lotus server and done.

 

but the thing is, i am worry about i might messed the Exchanged server and

all that.

i wanted to know that, How do i install Exchange server in the PDC?

any step by step guide i could refer to?

 

any advice before i start this and after?

 

thanks in advance

 

regards,

Vince

Hello ViNC3 via WinServerKB.com,

 

I do not know anything about Lotus Notes migration, but it is NOT recommended

from MS to install Exchange on a Domain controller. Use a separate member

server for it.
