This guide explains how to copy the content of one or several existing email addresses from other providers to one or several email accounts managed by Infomaniak, using the import tool Infomaniak!

Preamble

• The entirety of the external mailbox will be imported.
• Once the import process has started, it can no longer be interrupted.
• A confirmation email is sent once the copy is complete.
• The removal of duplicates (in case of successive imports) is handled.
• It is also possible to copy the content already on an email address provided by Infomaniak (@ik.me for example).

Copy emails from another provider to Infomaniak

Prerequisites

• Order a Mail Service from Infomaniak.
• Create one or more addresses on this Mail Service.
• The email address whose content must be copied must have been used (or be compatible) with the IMAP protocol.
• The email address to which the content must be copied must be among the addresses attached to the Infomaniak Web Mail app (online service mail.infomaniak.com); if it is not listed, the drop-down menu (see point 9 below) will not offer this address.
  • This is not a prerequisite for batch import (detailed at the bottom of this guide).

Then, click on the link corresponding to the email provider to import:

• addresses @ Bluewin
• addresses @ Gmail (or address @ custom Google domain)
• addresses @ GMX
• addresses @ custom domain Microsoft 365
• addresses @ custom domain Swisscom
• addresses @ Yahoo
