email migration

Move your mailboxes with a clear cutover plan.

Moving email takes a little preparation. Keep accounts, messages and delivery records in view so you can test the new home before retiring the old one.

Start with an inventory

Inventory the accounts, data and delivery settings.

01

Accounts and addresses

List mailboxes, aliases, forwarding rules, shared addresses and the people who need access.

02

Messages and other data

Record mailbox sizes and retention needs. IMAP messages, contacts, calendars and local archives may need different migration methods.

03

The delivery settings

Document MX records and sender authentication. Check every service that sends mail using your domain.

A considered cutover

Test the new mail service before switching delivery.

  1. Confirm the migration route

    A full cPanel account migration may include hosted email. For another provider or a mail-only move, confirm the supported copy method and what is excluded with the team.

  2. Set up and test the destination

    Create the required accounts and copy supported messages. Check folders, recent mail and access from the devices your team uses.

  3. Switch delivery carefully

    Follow the supplied DNS instructions, allow for caching and monitor both old and new mailboxes. Keep the old service available until final delivery and data checks are complete.

Let.com offers free website and cPanel migrations. Mail-only automation and provider-specific connectors are not claimed by this preview; confirm the route and scope for your accounts before starting.

Frequently asked questions

What you need to know.

Talk to our team

Does a domain transfer move my email?

No. A registrar transfer changes where the domain is registered. Email hosting, mailbox data and DNS service need their own plan.

Will contacts and calendars move with IMAP mail?

IMAP transfers messages and folders. Contacts, calendars, rules and local archives can require separate export or migration methods.

When should I cancel the old service?

After the destination data, new delivery, devices and required DNS services have been verified. Keep enough overlap to identify late-arriving messages or missing data.
