  1. Find an email host
     

    There are a lot of email hosts out there. We recommend keeping a few things in mind while looking for your new email host:
    What is your budget?
    What features do you want to make sure are included (for example, syncing between devices, large back-up storage, etc.)?
    What kind of support do you want to make sure is included (for example, phone support, support available 24/7)?

    If you're at a loss of where to start, here are some email hosts that are commonly used:

    • Microsoft
    • Google
    • Checking with your domain registrar may also be a good place to start, as they may offer their own email hosting
       
  2. Get your mail records from your new host and send to us, and give them your list of email accounts

    You'll want your email host to pre-enter your email addresses from their end, if at all possible, to make sure there is the shortest downtime as possible. You'll also want to have them provide you the mail records for their email servers and send them to us (it's best if they send this to you in an email, that way you can just forward it to us). It's recommended to schedule this process ahead of time so you can do one last download of emails before the switch.
     
  3. Update the configuration settings on your email client

    Your email host will have new configuration settings; you'll want to make sure you have their instructions on how to make those changes once the switch has been completed.
