I read the exadmin.chm very well, and then migrated 200+ users from our
Lotus Notes to Exchange 2000 domain.  Using the migration wizard (after
creating all the connector id's and giving it priviledges within each
mailbox) worked like a champ.  We did encounter one problem when SP2 was
applied which couldn't be corrected, but after SP3 for exchange, I
retested and the migration again worked fine.

The NDRs do get nasty if you import the address book over as well into a
contacts list.  I broke the Notes Connector and had to manually remove the
Lotus addresses on each user.  Some replied to a user and ended up with
username/notes/domain getting rejected.  But after a little trial and
error, the migration went pretty well.  Had no issues pulling mail over
from the notes server either.   Again, I simply read the exadmin.chm help
file at length, then planned it out, and it went real smooth.   You can do
each user at a time, so just create a bogus Notes user and test it prior
to rolling out the migration.
