Lotus notes connector with Outlook 2007

I recently changed jobs and the new company uses Lotus Domino server
as the primary mail server. So I loaded Notes (v7.0.1) and it pretty
much sucks. So I installed Office 2003 and loaded the "Microsoft®
Office Outlook® Connector for IBM Lotus Domino" (v2.0.4007.0) -
olconn2.exe, which is as far as I can figure out applicable to Outlook
2002 and Outlook 2003. All worked well and I could sync fine.

Then I moved offices and could not sync because of firewall issues.
Still not a problem and I accepted it. I continued to use the Outlook
to update my calendar and tasks offline.

I got greedy and upgraded to Office 2007 then. I started getting
errors when opening the Outlook profile. "Cannot expand the folder.
The set of folders cannot be opened. An unexpected error has
occurred.MAPI was unable to load the information service msoc.sll. Be
sure the service is correctly installed and configured."

Can the connector be used with Outlook2007? It seems not, cause when I
uninstall and try to re-install, it says Office 2002/2003 or XP is
needed and exits. Is there a newer connector available? Or can I
somehow export whatever is in the .NST file into a .PST?

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks

Apparently there are no plans to release an Outlook 2007-compatible Lotus 
Connector.

Is there any way that I can extract the data that I had in the
profile? Everything was offline/on the local machine anyway. It seems
to be in the 6MB .NST file in the mail folder I created for storing
the mail. I cant find any help on extracting data from .NST files,
other than open the Outlook profile and export it, which I can't do. I
also cannot downgrade to Outlook 2003 again, just uninstall. Any
suggestions anyone?

Did you ever find a solution? I am in the same boat.
