If you’re planning to move from Lotus Notes to an IMAP-based email service (like Gmail, Yahoo Mail, or others), migrating NSF emails can be a challenge due to the format incompatibility. Since NSF files are exclusive to IBM Lotus Notes, they can’t be directly imported into IMAP servers without conversion.
To make this process easier, tools like eSoftTools NSF to IMAP Migrator come in handy. This software lets you connect to your IMAP server and directly migrate all emails from NSF files. It preserves the original folder structure and email metadata (like To, From, Date, Subject) during the transfer. With features like selective folder migration, secure login, and easy configuration, it’s a solid option for users who want to access their Lotus Notes emails from cloud-based platforms without any data loss.
