Copying the contents of an email address (Gmail, Infomaniak, etc.) from one email account to another
This guide explains how to import the contents of one or more existing email addresses to one or more email accounts managed by Infomaniak.
The previous supplier can be Yahoo, Outlook.com, Hotmail, etc. but it is also possible to copy content already located in an address supplied by Infomaniak
Quitting Gmail is also possible and a specific guide for this supplier is located here: https://www.infomaniak.com/en/support/faq/2090/copying-your-gmail-inbox-to-a-new-email-address-requirements
To use our copying wizard, the email address whose content is to be copied must be used with the IMAP protocol.

- open the transfer assistant (https://workspace.infomaniak.com/syncimap)
