When our company made the switch from Outlook to Lotus Notes, moving all our old data was my biggest headache. I ended up using the Softaken converter, and it smoothly transitioned all my heavy PST files into NSF format without corrupting a single email or calendar event. It even kept my original folder structures completely intact, which turned hours of potential work into just a few minutes.
