Users migrating from cc:Mail can specify archive files only if they run the wizard using the Custom upgrade method. The upgrade wizard for Microsoft Mail requires users to select archive files regardless of the upgrade method selected.
By default, when you specify archive files to migrate, the upgrade wizards look for the files in the current working directory. If users run the upgrade wizard from a Windows desktop shortcut, you can set the current working directory by editing the 'Start in' field in the shortcut properties for the application. If users run the upgrade wizard from the upgrade notification message, or if you do not edit the "Start in" location, the current working directory is set to the directory from which the application was started. To specify a different archive source, users can browse the file system to locate the archives to migrate.
Users must have read/write access to the directory containing the archive files to migrate, as well as to the directory that stores temporary files used during the migration process. The upgrade wizard places temporary files in the directory specified by the Windows environment variable "TEMP=". Typically, the TEMP variable specifies a local directory, such as C:\WINDOWS\TEMP.
When migrating Microsoft Mail or Microsoft Exchange archives that are protected with a password, a user must supply the appropriate user name and password. cc:Mail archives are not password-protected, and can be opened and migrated by any user who has the appropriate file access.
