4. Verify if Contacts; Calendar Entries; Tasks; Todo’s have been migrated properly or not.<\/p>\n

5. Change the MX<\/strong> records and add Cname <\/strong>for AutoDiscover<\/strong>. Please note that it might take upto 24 hours for the MX <\/strong> records and CNAME <\/strong>record to propogate over the Internet. Till then some mails will come in your new account and some mails in your old account. We strongly recommend that dont cancel your previous hosting account till you are sure that the transition is complete and migrated mails have accurate data.<\/p>\n

MX Records (please refer to the welcome mail received while signing up for the appropriate MX records):<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

domainname.com -> mx11.hostmailserver.com , use priority 10
\ndomainname.com -> mx12.hostmailserver.com , use priority 10<\/p>\n

Add the CNAME:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

autodiscover.domainname.com -> autodiscoverredirect.apps4rent.com<\/p>\n

6. During the DNS propagation some mails will come in your new account and some mails will go in your old account. After the DNS has propagated completely you need to follow step 1; 3 and 4 again to get some mail which went to your old server during propogation. Only difference is you will use the Filter Option at step 1-c while exporting and 3-d while importing. You will need to filter the mails by date.<\/p>\n

7. Verify if all your e-mails; tasks; calendar; contacts has migrated to the us completely.<\/p>\n
