您是否正在寻找一种将您的电子邮件帐户从 Gmail 转移到 Outlook 或将 Yahoo 转移到 Gmail(move your email account from Gmail to Outlook or Yahoo to Gmail)的方法？在主要的电子邮件提供商之外，如果您仍然使用大学电子邮件地址或来自(college email address)Cox 或 BellSouth(Cox or BellSouth)等本地ISP的电子邮件，切换到Gmail、Yahoo 或 Outlook.com(Yahoo or Outlook.com)是一个好主意，因为您会得到很多更多功能，更好的安全性和更多的支持。此外，一些学院和大学最终会在一段时间后关闭(time period)学生电子邮件(student email)地址，因此请在失去一切之前切换。
您可以尝试自己执行迁移，网上有大量教程，但如果您不熟悉技术细节或没有时间，最好使用第三方解决方案。因此，如果您需要将您的帐户信息(account info)、电子邮件、任务、日历项目、地址簿和联系人(book and contacts)等转移到新的电子邮件提供商(email provider)，有一项付费服务可以为您完成。
注意：曾经有一项名为 TrueSwitch 的服务得到 Google 和 Yahoo 等公司的支持，可让您免费在电子邮件提供商之间切换，但该网站和服务似乎不再可用。 (Note: There used to be a service called TrueSwitch that was backed by the likes of Google and Yahoo and let you switch between email providers for free, but it seems the site and service are no longer available. )
YippieMove
你会认为会有更多的服务来帮助人们在提供商之间移动他们的电子邮件，但实际上并不多。YippieMove现在是我可以在网上找到的唯一提供这项服务的公司。TrueSwitch消失后(TrueSwitch)，如果您希望其他人迁移您的电子邮件，您将不得不支付少量费用。如果你想免费做，你必须自己尝试。对于那些人，向下滚动到底部，我列出了一些用于自己迁移电子邮件的优秀资源。
基本上，对于一次转移，即Cox到Gmail，您必须支付 15 美元。这包括将所有电子邮件从一个帐户转移到另一个帐户。
我喜欢YippieMove的地方在于它支持很多电子邮件提供商，包括学院/大学、国际提供商和那些讨厌的本地ISP(ISPs) ，如Comcast、Cox等。这是他们支持的提供商的完整列表。(list of providers)
此外，您可以通过检查您的电子邮件提供商(email provider)是否支持IMAP来快速检查(IMAP)YippieMove是否适合您。如果它只支持POP3，那么你就不能使用(t use)YippieMove。好消息是，即使您的电子邮件提供商(email provider)未列在受支持的提供商列表中，只要支持IMAP ，它可能仍然能够迁移您的电子邮件。
该网站还提供了很多指南和视频(few guides and videos)，只是为了让您更轻松地完成此过程。它没有列出所有可能的转移，但所有转移的原理几乎相同。要开始，请单击主页上的立即开始按钮。( Start now)
该过程基本上是三个步骤：从哪里转移，转移到哪里以及转移什么。继续并为您首先要移动的电子邮件提供商填写您的登录凭据，然后单击(email provider)Next。然后输入您要移动到的电子邮件提供商的凭据，然后单击(email provider)Next。
最后，在最后一个屏幕上，您将可以选择要迁移的文件夹。它会尝试为您匹配文件夹，但如果有任何问题，您可以手动更改目标文件夹(destination folder)。
值得注意的是，如果您在前两个步骤中输入错误的登录凭据，该网站不会给您任何错误消息。当您进入第 3 步时，它将为空，而不是列出文件夹。在这种情况下，请返回并重新输入您的登录凭据。此外，如果您在任何帐户上使用双因素，您可能必须禁用它才能进行转移。您可能会使用应用密码(app password)，但我没有对此进行测试。
最后，单击完成(Finish)，该过程将在其后端服务器上开始。据该网站称，整个过程通常在 24 小时内完成。常见问题解答(FAQ)中谈到的主要功能是YippieMove在执行传输时将保持原始电子邮件的完整性。这意味着它将保持发送日期/时间、任何附件、已读和未读状态等。
然后，您可以创建一个帐户并登录(account and login)以查看迁移状态。YippieMove还指出，您在网站上输入的凭据将通过SSL进行加密。我不喜欢的唯一问题是他们存储数据的政策。如果您查看隐私政策(privacy policy)，它会声明他们可以将您的凭据存储在他们的服务器上，并且将在 60 天内将其删除。
我认为他们没有理由保留您的凭据 60 天。我的建议是使用该服务，然后更改两个电子邮件提供商的密码，以确保安全。
总体而言，YippieMove是一项合法的服务，似乎对大多数人都适用。我在网上找不到任何关于该服务(service online)的差评或评论，所以我猜大多数人已经满意了。只需 15 美元，即使它将您的大部分电子邮件发送到新的提供商，也值得一试。如果您使用过该服务，请在评论中告诉我们您的体验。享受！
How to Move or Transfer Email Accounts from One ISP to Another
Are you looking for a way to move your email account from Gmail to Outlook or Yahoo to Gmail? Outside of the major email providers, if you’re still stuck with your college email address or an email from your local ISP like Cox or BellSouth, switching to Gmail, Yahoo or Outlook.com is a good idea because you’ll get a lot more features, better security and more support. Also, some colleges and universities eventually shutdown student email addresses after a certain time period, so switch before you lose everything.
You can try to perform a migration yourself and there are tons of tutorials on the Net, but if you’re not familiar with the technical details or don’t have the time, it might be better to use a third-party solution. So if you need to transfer your account info, emails, tasks, calendar items, address book and contacts, etc to a new email provider, there’s a paid service that can do it for you.
Note: There used to be a service called TrueSwitch that was backed by the likes of Google and Yahoo and let you switch between email providers for free, but it seems the site and service are no longer available.
YippieMove
You would think there would be more services out there to help people move their email between providers, but there really aren’t very many. YippieMove is now the only one that provides this service that I could find online. With TrueSwitch gone, you’ll have to pay a small price if you want someone else to migrate your email. If you want to do it for free, you’ll have to try it yourself. For those folks, scroll down to the bottom where I have listed out some excellent resources for migrating email yourself.
Basically, for one transfer, i.e. Cox to Gmail, you’ll have to pay $15. That includes transferring all the email from one account to the other.
What I like about YippieMove is that it supports a whole lot of email providers, including colleges/universities, international providers and those pesky local ISPs like Comcast, Cox, etc. Here is a full list of providers that they support.
Also, you can quickly check whether or not YippieMove will work for you or not by checking whether your email provider supports IMAP. If it only supports POP3, then you can’t use YippieMove. The good thing is that even if your email provider is not listed on the list of supported providers, it will probably still be able to migrate your email as long as IMAP is supported.
The site also provides quite a few guides and videos just to make the process even easier for you. It doesn’t list every possible transfer, but the principle is pretty much the same for all the transfers. To get started, you click on the Start now button on the homepage.
The process is basically three steps: where from, where to and what to transfer. Go ahead and fill in your login credentials for the email provider you want to move from first and click Next. Then enter the credentials for the email provider you are moving to and click Next.
Finally, on the last screen, you will get to choose which folders you want to migrate. It will try to match the folders for you, but if there are any problems, you can manually change the destination folder.
It’s worth noting that the website does not give you any error message if you mistype your login credentials on the first two steps. When you get to step 3, it’ll be empty instead of listing out the folders. In that case, go back and retype your login credentials. Also, if you’re using two-factor on any of the accounts, you will probably have to disable it in order to do the transfer. You could possibly use an app password, but I didn’t test that.
Finally, click Finish and the process will begin on their backend servers. According to the site, the entire process usually completes within 24 hours. The main feature talked about in the FAQ is the fact that YippieMove will maintain the integrity of the original email when performing the transfer. That means it will maintain the date/time it was sent, any attachments, read and unread status, etc.
You can then create an account and login to see the status of the migration. YippieMove also states that the credentials you enter on the site will be encrypted via SSL. The only issue I don’t like is their policy on storing your data. If you look at the privacy policy, it states they can store your credentials on their servers and that it will be deleted within 60 days.
I see no reason why they should hold on to your credentials for 60 days. My suggestion would be to use the service and then to change your passwords for both email providers just to be on the safe side.
Overall, YippieMove is a legitimate service that seems to work well for most people. I couldn’t find any bad reviews or remarks about the service online, so I’m guessing most people have been satisfied. For only $15, it worth a try even if it gets most of your email into the new provider. If you have used the service, let us know your experience in the comments. Enjoy!
