MAIL AND DIRECTORY MIGRATION

Retaining cc:Mail MTA routing information for deferred mailbox migration
The Conversion Settings pane of the cc:Mail Upgrade Advanced Settings dialog box includes the check box "Retain cc:Mail MTA routing information for deferred mailbox migration." If you can't migrate all cc:Mail users at once, select this check box to migrate users in two phases, as follows:

Phase 1


Phase 2
Completing the first phase of the migration

During the first phase of the migration, complete the following:

1. From the People and Groups Migration dialog box, select cc:Mail MTA users to migrate from the Available people/groups list.

2. In the Migration options list:

3. Click Advanced to open the Conversions Settings pane of the cc:Mail Upgrade Advanced Settings dialog box and select "Retain cc:Mail MTA routing information for deferred mailbox migration."

4. Click Migrate and then click Done to add the users to the Registration Queue.

5. From the Register Person dialog box, select the users to register in the Registration queue.

6. Select the Mail pane and then select Lotus Notes in the Mail system field.

7. Click Register.

After you complete Phase 1, each user's Person document is updated to indicate they are registered Lotus Notes users with Notes IDs and mail files. However, because users retain the cc:Mail MTA routing information in their Notes Person documents, they continue to receive messages in their cc:Mail mailboxes and access their mail using the cc:Mail client.

The cc:Mail Domino Upgrade Service saves the mail system setting (Lotus Notes) you specify in Step 6, but the setting is saved in the background and is not put into effect. Instead, the Mail system field in the Person document remains set to cc:Mail and other cc:Mail routing information is retained. As a result, routing support for the cc:Mail MTA is maintained, and the Lotus Notes user is prevented from using the Notes mail system. Users only receive mail through the cc:Mail MTA router. The cc:Mail Automatic Directory Exchange (ADE) facility continues to propagate the users' cc:Mail directory information to other cc:Mail post offices.

This option only affects users whom you register from cc:Mail MTA Person documents.

Completing the second phase of the migration

During the second phase of the migration, you:

1. Select the same users you migrated in Step 1 of the first migration phase.

2. In the Migration options list of the People and Groups Migration dialog box, select "Convert mail only."

The cc:Mail Domino Upgrade Service converts messages in the users' mail boxes to Notes format and places them in their Notes mail files. It also removes the cc:Mail MTA settings from the Person document and replaces them with the saved Notes settings.
