users to convert their existing Notes mail database, folders, and messages to
Exchange Server.

The Mailbox Converter is a program used to convert folders and electronic mail
messages from Lotus Notes mail database to Exchange Server mailboxes directly
from users' desktops.

The Mailbox Converter administrator runs the Setup program. The administrator may
then perform the mailbox conversions or may provide end-users with the Mailbox
Converter program and documentation so that they can perform the conversions.

The Mailbox Converter is a DATA migration program. Only data, such as folders and
messages, are converted by the Mailbox Converter.
