IBM RedBooks
If you need Lotus Notes and Microsoft Exchange to coexist and play nice, you are facing a serious challenge. No matter which root cause landed you in this situation, be it a merger, acquisition, an executive initiative to change platforms, or a cloud computing/Software as a Service (SaaS) initiative, setting up coexistence that you and your users will be satisfied with is not as straightforward as implementing the Microsoft Transporter Suite.
While the Transporter Suite does setup a robust SMTP connection between Notes and Exchange, your users will be sure to let everyone know about confusing email addresses and not being able to decipher the attendee status of calendar invitations, that their peers aren’t getting updates to their recurring meetings, and that their email-enabled Notes applications no longer work. Won’t life be grand. Fortunately, there is a solution
CMT for Coexistence eliminates the disruptions to user productivity, collaboration, and business processes by adding key coexistence functionality that doesn’t exist in the native SMTP transport upon which the Microsoft Transporter Suite relies.
CMT for Coexistence acts as a traffic cop on the Domino server in the form of an add-in task and Extension Manager. It identifies message types and automatically “massages” them to produce the intended result. Your users stay happy. Your help desk doesn’t get more inundated than they already are. And you have some good ammo for your next performance review.
The Benefits
•Collaboration won’t suffer due to calendars not staying in sync
•Users will stay productive because it will be easier to see who they are sending emails and calendar invitations to and less confusing when they need to review the status of the attendees of their meetings
•Business processes will continue as normal because Outlook users will be able to view and act on email-embedded Lotus forms and buttons, as well as database links, document links, and view links just like the Notes users do |  |

The Features
CMT for Coexistence adds the following functionality to the Microsoft Transporter Suite.
Enhancing the Functionality of Email sent between Notes and Outlook users
