Notes Import Requirements

Before running a Notes import operation, note the following requirements.

Email Server

Event Import can import emails from Lotus Domino 7.0.2, 8, or 8.5

Event Import Host server

Install Event Import on a gateway server.

Lotus Notes

The Event Import host machine must be running:

Lotus Notes 7, 8, or 8.5

Notes User

The Notes user on the Event Import host server must have access to all Notes databases that you want to import emails from. If you intend to use the NSF.DeleteAfterImport parameter, the Notes user must have sufficient rights to delete emails after a successful import operation.

CA DataMinder needs to access the Notes user on the Event Import host server. You therefore need to set the password for this user. To avoid a security loophole, configure wgncred.exe to securely cache this password. The corresponding parameter for setting this password in import.ini is NSF.ImportPassword.

Note: When importing emails from a Notes database, be aware that you cannot import directly from the Trash and Junk Mail folders.

Importing from an encrypted Domino journal mailbox

The Notes user on the Event Import host machine must also be the user that the Domino journal is encrypted on behalf of.

The Notes user on the Event Import host machine must have rights to manage the journal mailbox. To grant these rights:

1. Log onto the Domino server and right-click the journal mailbox, mailjrn.nsf.
2. Click Access Control, Manage.
3. Set the User Type to 'Person'.
4. Set the Access to 'Manager'.
5. Click the 'Delete Documents' check box.
