Discover the free Swiss alternative to Bluewin for your emails
This guide explains how to transfer your email currently managed by Bluewin to the free-for-life Infomaniak offer!
Preamble
- It is easy to switch the entire structure of your emails to Infomaniak - discover the offers.
- Use your email address on a simple browser, Outlook, etc. and on mobile devices iOS/Android thanks to the Infomaniak Mail app.
- Import your contacts to continue communicating with them from your new email.
- The operation does not affect either the data already present on the destination address, nor that of the source address.
- The entirety of the external mailbox will be imported.
- Once the import process has started, it is no longer possible to interrupt it.
- Any duplicates are managed: identical content will only be copied once.
- Inform your correspondents that your
@bluewinaddress becomes the Infomaniak address you chose when subscribing to the offer. - If necessary, local partners referenced by Infomaniak can handle these procedures: launch a free call for tenders; they take care of everything, freeing you from the technical details.
