Export Lotus Notes Messages And Attachments

You must install the integration using the button in the email message sent to you by a System Administrator before you can export messages and attachments from Lotus Notes.

To export messages and attachments from Lotus Notes:

1. Open Lotus Notes and open your email database.

2. Select the messages that you want to export.

3. Click the Email Export button on the Universal toolbar.

   The Lotus Notes Export dialog box appears.

4. Click the Browse buttons to select locations or type locations using the descriptions in the following table.

5. Click Proceed.

   Another Lotus Notes Export dialog will appear, listing the messages and attachments that will be exported to the selected vault.

6. Confirm that the correct messages and attachments are listed and select a document type for each one in the Document Type column.

   Note:

   • You should clear all unnecessary attachments such as footer images, signatures, and so on so that they are not saved in the vault.

   • The document types listed for your selection are configured by a System Administrator.

   To view the email and file properties for a message or attachment, right-click the file. The Properties dialog box appears.

7. Click Export.

   The messages and their attachments are exported to the vault. The Export summary statistics dialog opens to show the results.

8. Click Close.
