2) Add the IMAP account to your outlook. Even though it’s the same email address outlook treats it as another email account because of the IMAP setting vs your old POP3 email account. The new IMAP account is on a new Email server. Your old POP3 email server will be shut off soon.

The below instructions are moving your emails onto the New IMAP Email Server that is Secure. The old POP3 server will be shut off soon.

 

My choice would be to highlight the group of emails in your old POP3 email account Folder/Folders “A.K.A Inbox” and all your subfolders that you have created if any.

Do this one folder at a time.

Right click on them and copy them to the clipboard.

You can select the first email in the group, “The first one in the list to the right. “ highlight it and scroll down to the bottom of the list. Hit and hold the “Shift” Key while clicking the last email in the list/group. This will highlight all your email.

Right click them and click copy.

Once copied it could take a few minutes depending on the amount of emails in your email account. Please be patient. Don’t use your computer while copying large amounts of emails it might crash outlook.

Outlook will act like its not responding sometimes but it is working.

After it is done copying your emails to the clipboard open the new IMAP Inbox folder.

Mouse over to the window where your email are listed “The Same Place You Copied Them From” and hit the CTRL + V keys. This will paste your emails to that folder.

That should have you good to go.

You should archive your outlook emails that are older than 6 months to keep your outlook database from growing to larger. Outlook will crash once your outlook .PST file gets over 2-2.5GB. Then you will have Fun!

Archiving your emails protects them from virus infection and lose as well. Archive them to a backup USB drive/jumpdrive of choice.
