In this article we would be discussing a supported method for connecting Microsoft Outlook 2002 and Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 with a Lotus Notes e-mail server.



You cannot connect to a Lotus Notes Mail mailbox by using Microsoft Outlook with a MAPI profile. Sometimes you can connect, but when you try to open any message, you may receive the following error message:



“Unable to open item. And extended error occurred unknown to mapi.”


There is a supported method for connecting to a Lotus Notes e-mail server with Outlook, developed by Microsoft.



The MAPI driver that is provided by Lotus Notes Mail is not a full implementation of the MAPI specification. Outlook cannot use the Lotus Notes Mail driver as an information store provider.



To resolve this issue, Microsoft has developed an add-in for Outlook 2002 and for Outlook 2003 for connection with IBM Lotus Notes release 5.x or 6.x servers



If your e-mail server can provide e-mail client connectivity by using the HTTP, IMAP4, or POP3 protocols, you can use Outlook to download your e-mail.



Tested drivers that are not supported with Outlook include the following drivers:



Lotus Notes Mail


Netscape SMTP driver (using the Internet Mail driver provided with Outlook, you can connect to Netscape and other SMTP/POP3 servers).



Going through such complexities is not recommended, so it would be fruitful you decide on whether you want to use MS Outlook or Lotus Notes. And if you have decided to go with MS Outlook then you would be in need of Notes .NSF files in Outlook .PST files. To get this job done, Notes to PST tool is available that makes Notes .NSF to Outlook .PST email conversion possible and successful too. Notes to PST email conversion software migrates unlimited .NSF files to newly created PST files or Exchange Server user mailboxes. One can directly convert Domino Server mailboxes to Exchange Server user mailboxes.
