If you migrate from a Lotus cc:Mail archive to a Microsoft Outlook personal folder (.pst) file by using the Japanese-language version of the Microsoft Importer for Lotus cc:Mail Archives (Ccmarch.exe), the Japanese characters in the subject line may be replaced with question marks (???).
CAUSE
This problem occurs because the code page that is used in the translation function is not correct, which renders Japanese characters unreadable. The unreadable Japanese characters are displayed as question marks (???) in the subject line of the message.
