Question: Email migration?

[mvip]

Hi guys,

I have received many requests from clients who needs to migrate their old email in order to switch to my service. Hence I'm looking to offer an email migration solution. I don't have time or resources to do this in-house, so I'm evaluating different options right now. I ran into a service named Yippiemove. They offer web-based email migration (SaaS). One of their products is some kind of white-labeled version of their service. It looks pretty interesting - http://www.yippiemove.com/help/custom_domain.html

The only other realistic option I can think of is to write some kind of web-based wrapper for imapsync - http://www.linux-france.org/prj/imapsync . However, I'm not sure how reliable and time consuming that would be.

What do you guys think? If you do offer email migration, what tools do you use?

Hi,

On which server platform client email service is running..? provide the details of your email server and client email server where it is running which can be more helpful inorder to help on this...

We're talking simple IMAP (as that is pretty much the standards). No contacts, no calendars.

Email Migration is the act of moving users from one email system to another. Typically, it describes moving from a self-managed email server to an outsourced, or Managed Email solution (AKA Hosted Email). It is also used to describe the move from one managed system to another.

Email migration can be done in the following ways:

[1] Moving only email accounts without content from one server to another server
[2] Moving email accounts with content from one server to another server
