Export my email into XML or ???
My firm is converting away from Lotus Notes and I will not be able to import into my new application. I want to archive my email into separate xml documents, or something better than a mass text file. I have 15K documents to preserve. I tried EXPORTWIZ, but it is clunky. I do have just a normal user's access to lotus. I may have to write some VB to format the ugly and massive EXPORT file & create documents... but there has to be a better way! Surely someone has been here before...

Use an IMAP client to pull in all Notes e-Mail, preservin file structure. Requires that you have IMAP enabled on your server. Outllok, Outllok Express, Eudora, Netscape Messenger are all IMAP clients.
If you are getting Outllok BEFORE Notes goes away, then you can install the Notes provider for Outlook, create a Notes profile in Outlook, and you will have access to that mail file. I think you can then create a PST file out of the Notes data for permanent storage in Outlook
Create a local replica Notes mail file, and keep a copy of your Notes client to read it with. This is obvisoul teh most flexible approach. You may want to keep a copy of a Notes installer so you can move it to another machine.
