  dcterms:description "Lotus Notes (later IBM Notes and HCL Notes) is a desktop workflow application for email that can also be used to access databases such as document libraries and custom applications including workflows. The Lotus Development Corp. developed the program in 1989 and it was acquired by IBM in 1995. Lotus Notes 2.0 was released in 1991 and increased the number of users each server could support, up to 10,000. Several types of NSF files are created and used by the program, with the extensions .nsf and .ns2. The mailbox database, consisting of email messages, chat and instant messages, calendar entries and To-Do items as well as other archived data, is stored in a single \"username.nsf\" file for each individual user. Contact Notes in the address book database are stored in the \"names.nsf\" file; contacts also can be saved into a readable format-vCard (VCF) or Comma Separated Value (CSV) file. Notebooks, also known as Personal Journals, are composed of personal documents and information that can define the priority documents of the custodian; these are found in the \"notebook.nsf\" file. Lotus Notes files are proprietary, require server access and a license, and cannot be opened by other tools. NARA recommends conversion to another file format, including converting the mailbox from CSV to PST or exporting emails as ASCII text. More research is required for conversion of other file types." ;

There are tools in the marketplace to convert NSF to PST or EML: SysTools Lotus Notes NSF Converter; Stellar Converter for NSF, SysInfo NSF Viewer, and NSF Converter Tools NSF Viewer and NSF to PST and NSF to EML Converter Tool. There are documented procedures to use MS Outlook to convert CSV files made from NSF to PST, but it is unknown which versions are requires and which versions are supported." ;
