Transferring a domain with attached emails
« on: April 01, 2014, 02:03:48 PM »
I'm working on transferring the domain for my organization's website to DotEasy from a hosting service where you did all your own coding after the person who was doing the coding became physically unable to continue running the website.

My major concern is, if we are able to transfer the domain, what will happen to the email accounts attached to the domain during the transfer process? Will they stay intact, will they get restarted, will we have a black out, or what will happen?

You will first need to create the same email accounts on Doteasy side.
Then, you will need to use your mail client to download all your emails.

Once your domain and hosting transferred to Doteasy, you can close your old web host and change DNS and point to Doteasy.

Your new emails will arrive to your new Doteasy mail server.
