We recently acquired a company which uses Microsoft Exchange 2000 as it's email platform. Our existing infrastructure still runs on Lotus Domino 8. We are currently looking into integrating the address books from both into one. We want to keep a flat 1 domain name structure for all users in both domino and exchange, so all emails will come in to a domino server, then get bounced over to an exchange server if this user is an exchange user. I'm wondering if anyone has encountered this type of situation before, and how they handled the configuration.

Integrating Microsoft Exchange 2000 and Lotus Domino 8

Lotus Software produced the Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet program, and later developed Lotus Notes, a groupware and email system. Following its acquisition by IBM, the Notes and Domino client/server collaborative platform were expanded to include functions such as email, calendars, to-do lists, contacts management, teamrooms, discussion forums, file sharing, microblogging, instant messaging, blogs, and user directories. IBM also release SmartSuite, a comprehensive office suite, and followed that with Symphony, unrelated to the Lotus suite of the same name.
