Lotus Notes export

Postby Muad_dib77 » Wed Oct 20, 2010 10:40 am

Does anybody know how to export emails from Lotus notes?

I have like a ZILLION that I want to export to say word or pdf..I'd even consider rich text...

Individual emails? Just install a PDF printer such as CutePDF and print mails to file. Theres no other method that I'm aware of to target multiple mails simultaneously, you could always look at an NSF to PST conversion utility, I'd expect there are more options on the MS front.

I wanted to do this with several years of emails, but when I looked into it there are tools that do it well but none were free. They convert the notes mails into mails in outlook psts.

I deal with this very thing in work quite a lot of the time. Free NSF to PST tools are useless so buying one is the only option there, and believe me I've tried them all. Transcend Migrator is the tool I use and it's fit for purpose. If you print the email to PDF then you will lose the attachments that are in it unless you print them or save them out too. You can archive the emails to an NSF and keep dumping mails in there unless you plan on moving to Outlook or something.

Very very very annoying.

I tried setting up an agent that would forward my mails one by one to a gmail account.. if course it didn't work as I'm utterly useless.. and if it had worked I'd prolly have gotten into a load of trouble with the it-team as I would have put ALOT of traffic through the mail server.

Why not export them all to an NSF file. Do you plan on using Lotus Notes forever?

An NSF is the Lotus Notes equivalent of Outlooks PST. NSFs are more like a database though, it stores emails very differently to a PST. If you export to an NSF then you would need Lotus Notes to reimport or read them. As I mentioned before you would need to buy an NSF to PST converter if you wanted a more easily readable format. PM me if you want more specifics.
