Migration
Switch without missing a single message.
Your old email keeps working until the very last step. We copy every folder and message first, verify it, and only then switch your DNS. No downtime, no lost mail.
Supported providers
Coming from anywhere.
If your current provider supports IMAP, and almost all do, we can move your mail. Times are per mailbox and depend on its size.
Included on Business and Professional. Our team runs the migration with you. On Starter, follow the steps below and we’ll answer any questions.
| From | Effort | Typical time |
|---|---|---|
| Major cloud email suites | Easy | 1–2 h |
| Free webmail accounts | Easy | 1–2 h |
| Other business email hosts | Easy | ~1 h |
| Hosted Exchange (via IMAP) | Easy | ~1 h |
| GoDaddy / cPanel email | Medium | 2–3 h |
| Any other IMAP server | Medium | 2–4 h |
Step by step
Five steps, zero downtime.
- Step 1
Create mailboxes
Add your domain and a MailCRO mailbox for every address you use, aliases included.
- Step 2
Prepare the old account
Enable IMAP with your current provider and create app passwords where needed.
- Step 3
Copy your mail
Folders, read status and flags come across intact, while the old account keeps working.
- Step 4
Verify
Check folders and message counts. Import calendars (.ics) and contacts (.vcf).
- Step 5
Switch DNS
Update MX, SPF, DKIM and DMARC. A final sync catches mail sent during the switch.
Important: only change your DNS after the migration is verified. Changes usually apply within 1 to 24 hours, so keep your old account for another 48 to 72 hours as a safety net.
Checklist
Before you switch.
When you’re ready, we send every DNS record to add at your registrar, with a plain-language explanation, and check them with you.
- List every mailbox and alias you use today
- Note who has access to your DNS settings
- Enable IMAP and create app passwords on the old provider
- Export calendars (.ics) and contacts (.vcf)
- Lower your DNS TTL to 5 minutes a day before switching
- Reconnect phones and desktop apps after the switch
