Copy emails to Infomaniak

Update 05/21/2026

This guide explains how to copy the content of one or more external email addresses (all email messages, folders, subfolders, in short, the entire structure of your existing mailbox with other providers) to one or more of your existing addresses at Infomaniak, using the Infomaniak import tool!

 

Introduction

  • It is easy to transfer the entire structure of your emails to Infomaniak - discover the offers.
  • This operation does not affect the data already present in the destination address or the source address.
  • The entirety of the external mailbox will be imported as a copy.
  • 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.

 

Start copying to an Infomaniak email address

Several options are available for importing emails:

  1. Do you want to copy emails already present at Infomaniak (e.g., @ik.me) to another mailbox also at Infomaniak?
  2. You have a file/archive in MBOX format and want to import it directly into an existing address on Infomaniak?
    • Refer to this other guide to import the content of the .mbox file and thus import your emails, regardless of their origin, to Infomaniak.
    • This is ideal for easily transferring content from Google, as an MBOX file can be easily obtained via Google Takeout.
  3. If you were unable to obtain an MBOX file of your emails, you can copy emails from an external provider using the IMAP import tool; click on the link corresponding to the email provider to be imported:
