HI,
I've just migrated GroupWise 6.5 to Exchange2003
What worked for me was:
Configure a Migration PC with the following:
1. Latest Novell Client 4.9 or above
2. GroupWise Client 6.5
3. a local copy of Exchsrvr\bin directory
Run mailmig.exe from the local copy, and export "Migration
Files" only.
Copy the files to the Exchange Server and import the
Migration Files from there.
The Address book:
From the groupwise client, export the Address book as a
NAB file. Rename it to .csv
Import the new .csv file into Outlook as an Windows Comma
Seperated file. (you got to map the gw-fields to match the
ones in Outlook)
Hope this can help you
