Email Migration

If you have a lot of email stored on your former email provider's servers, there are many ways for you to migrate this existing email to LuxSci. Standard things that you can do yourself include:

  • IMAP: If your former provider supports IMAP, you can set up your LuxSci IMAP account in parallel to your old account in your email client (i.e. Outlook or Thunderbird) and drag and drop messages and folders between the accounts. This will always work, no matter what kind of system your former provider uses.
  • POP: If your former provider supports only POP, you can migrate your INBOX email to LuxSci using our WebMail-based POP-downloading tool. This tool can connect to your old provider and copy all your INBOX email to your new LuxSci INBOX for you.

Migration "en Mass": When you have a lot of email, a lot of folders, and/or a lot of users and your old provider supports IMAP, LuxSci can connect to your old provider and automatically download all email from all folders for all users and save this email in their new LuxSci accounts. LuxSci can do this once before your transition, and once after your transition is complete to grab any new email on the old servers that may have arrived during the transition to LuxSci.

User by User: If you have a situations where you need to migrate users separtely or in groups such that some users will be using your old system while some users will be using LuxSci; we have a solution. We can set up a special migration domain for you on LuxSci to which you can forward email from your old system for the users who have been migrated. This email will then be delivered to their new mailboxes on Luxsci where they can effectively send and receive email using their real address (the inbound email will merely pass through your old servers on its way to them). When all users are migrated, you simply change your DNS, remove the migration domain, and you are done.

Special Situations: If you are migrating from Lotus Notes, Exchange without IMAP, or some other proprietary system, LuxSci can use special software to facilitate the migration of all your email data to LuxSci. There may be an additional cost involved in these special situations.

Bulk User and Alias Creation

Luxsci's bulk user and alias creation tools allow you to use a CSV (comma separated values) file to quickly add all of your users and aliases to your account.

Migration of Other Data

Users: Users can be created easily in bulk using either a multi-user creation form or by uploading a comma-delimited or tab-delimited file of users into our administrative interface.

Aliases: Aliases can be created easily in bulk using either a multi-alias creation form or by uploading a comma-delimited or tab-delimited file of aliases into our administrative interface.

Domains: If you have many domains, LuxSci can add them for you automatically using its API.

Calendars, Tasks, and Contacts: LuxSci's WebAides support these items and you can import your data to the WebAides using CSV files on a per-user basis. Alternately, if you use Outlook, you can use LuxSci's proprietary "WebAideSynch" plugin to copy all of these data from your Outlook into your LuxSci accounts and then keep it synchronized thereafter.

Minimize the Transition Time

If keeping the transition time to a minimum or having control over exactly when the transition occurs is important to you, LuxSci's technicians can help you with a plan to achieve your goals.

Ideally, it is possible for the transition to happen in as little as 15-20 minutes on a date and time of your choosing. However, this requires some preparation that we can assist you in planning.
