I'm actually rejoicing, because all vestiges of the remnants of Notes is
finally going the way of the Doo Doo bird

V2 Records, which we acquired last year, used Notes as part of their global
email program.  When those people migrated to our company, they brought
their Notes stores with them, along with their Notes clients, and on some,
the Notes to Outlook connector, because they had copies all their notes
email into Outlook, and now had Outlook.nst files that had to be
accessible. I've had no end of issues with the systems that had the Notes
connector installed, where all of a sudden, the Notes client would become
the default email program, and/or repository for email, and nothing would
work. (No notes servers available).

Well, last week, we closed that division, and all but 3 of the people are
gone, and only 1 of those ever looks at their old notes email (he still has
the client installed, and can directly access his nsf files on his local
computer.  I'll never be happier to uninstall all the Notes stuff, and rip
out the Notes Connector .
