Update 04/27/2026
This guide explains how to transfer to Infomaniak email addresses currently hosted by Orange (France).
Preamble
- It is easy to switch the entire email tree structure 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, or that of the source address.
