Import from a mailbox into SkyConnect

Overview

Using LegacyFlo you can import email data from an email account to another account on SkyConnect
LegacyFlo allows you to import data from Gmail, O365, Exchange and other IMAP server

Before using LegacyFlo to access email data from source servers using the IMAP protocol or via the mail server API, confirm the following

Prerequisites for all mail servers

The emails to be migrated are available in the mailboxes hosted on the source server. Emails that have been downloaded using the POP protocol and deleted from the server, cannot be migrated using this option.
You should have the rights and the capability to reset the passwords on the source in order to access the mailboxes OR should be able to delegate the access.
If the source server is hosted at your own premises, you have provisioned sufficient Internet bandwidth to transfer the mailbox data. (This will not apply to SkyConnect, Vaultastic, O365, Yahoo, or GSuite.)
The source email service provider should allow large emails downloaded via IMAP/API without any throttling.
Your email service provider supports IMAP or API access to mailboxes. You have configured your email server to allow IMAP or API access as mentioned in the sections below.
