I have Lotus Notes environment in my office but I use MS Outlook at home. Is
there a way to transfer all
my email information from Lotus Notes to Outlook?

Please reply me asap.....

Don't know too much about Lotus Notes but there is certainly an "Import"
option in Outlook to transfer email from other utilities e.g. Outlook
Express etc., including an option to Import data from Lotus Organiser. (Use
the File\Import and Export with an 'Import from other program or file'
option). My guess would be that there is a similar facility offered in
Lotus Notes to "Export" data, although you *may* have to change its file
type (e.g. Tab Separated Values) to find a suitable common format for
Outlook.

Unfortunately, Notes is considerably more than just a mail program - it's
(theoretically, at least) just as capable as the whole Office suite.
I would ask your sysadmin for advice - and they'll probably tell you it can
be done but you're not allowed to do it.

Hi Noel,

Slightly OT - Did Notes replace SmartSuite? I used to use SmartSuite - and
several other Lotus applications in the late 90's - and a couple of
stand-alone apps. But since their decline and introduction of XP & Vista,
and the strong commercial push towards Office, not really touched them for
years. I do remember Improv as being a pretty good database.

Nah - Notes was the Lotus competitor to Office, which Smart Suite was the
competitor to Works
I have a client who still uses Organizer 5 on his network, despite being
totally MS otherwise - because it doesn't need a server as such, so saves a
small fortune in infrastructure costs.
AFAIK SmartSuite is doing a good impression of a Dodo, while Notes is still
supported, albeit poorly, by IBM - but I wouldn't bet on my being correct.

Notes was actually a very good beast for the portable office - using
significantly less resources than Office (back in 1995-2000) and with a
lower cost-per-bum. BUT lack of marketing effectively killed it, and it was
replaced by Domino(??) which never took off. (all this is IIRC - with a
large error-margin!!)

Lotus Organizer 2.1, 97, 97GS/4.1, and 5.0 (.org, .or2, .or3, .or4, .or5)
can all be impoted into Outlook using the Wizzard.

..none of which are in any way related to the OP's query about Notes :)

Yes there are many tools available in the market to shift from Lotus Notes
environment to Microsoft Outlook environment...

You can try one great tool called Export Notes from
here...http://www.nsftopst.co.uk & http://www.export-notes.com.

I also used this Export Notes utility and find it really works....

Thanks SysTools Group :)
