IMAP synchronization is an effective way to migrate emails without requiring direct access to cPanel’s backend. This method ensures that all emails remain intact during the transfer process.
Steps to Migrate Using IMAP
Step 1: Configure Both Email Accounts in an Email Client
- Use an email client like Thunderbird, Outlook, or Apple Mail.
- Add both source and destination email accounts using IMAP settings.
Step 2: Drag and Drop Emails
- Open both email accounts side by side.
- Select all emails from the source account and drag them to the destination account.
Step 3: Wait for Synchronization
IMAP will automatically sync the transferred emails to the destination mailbox.Limitations of IMAP Synchronization
- Time-consuming for large email accounts.
- High chance of errors if the email client crashes during the process.
