Why do mailbox folders matter?
Business users rarely keep every message in the Inbox. Sent Items, Drafts, Trash and custom folders may contain years of important company communication.
Can IMAP read folder structure?
IMAP allows a migration system to list folders on the source server. Each folder can then be analyzed and its messages processed individually.
Folder structure in an archive
When historical email is moved into an archive, preserving the original folder information makes old messages much easier to navigate.
Users can identify whether an email originally belonged to the Inbox, Sent folder or another custom folder.
Analyze before migration
Displaying the number of folders and messages before migration begins provides a clear overview of what will be transferred.
The MX1Mail migration approach analyzes the source mailbox before the migration is approved, helping businesses understand the scope of the transfer.
