Ok for those of you looking to find a way to move or migrate your email over to Mac Outlook 2016 from Mac Mail. Here's a real simple method. Let's assume that you have been using Mac email and your email was setup as a pop or IMAP account.
An Outlook for Mac Data File does not contain account settings or your Outlook preferences. Export contacts in a tab-delimited text file To transfer a set of contacts to another computer or application, you can export contacts as a tab-delimited text file, which can be opened by many other mail, spreadsheet, and database applications.
Now you want to switch your email account over to office 365 or Exchange environment and start using Outlook for Mac 2016. So you'll have to migrate your mail over to Outlook for Mac. 1) In your Mac email app, setup another email account but select 'Exchange' as the email configuration. Then enter your email address.
(even if it's the same one that you already have setup as a pop or IAMP account) 2) Now you have you should have two email accounts configured in your mac email. The old email account (pop or IMAP) and one that will say Exchange. 3) Go to your old email account in mac mail and select ALL emails then drag them over to the folder called 'Exchange. 4) Now all your email from your old account will sync to the new email account called Exchange. That's moving all your emails from your pop or IMAP account that are stored on your notebook to Office 365 or exchange (in the cloud) 5) Open Outlook for Mac and configure your email address there and it will start pulling down all your emails you just dragged over.
Now you have your emails from your Mac email to your Mac for Outlook. Also be sure to copy over your sent and deleted items as well.
Hope that was helpful.this is what I was looking for but couldn't find and finally figured out how to do it. I've got a user who has a lot of emails saved 'on her mac' but we need to move those emails to her exchange account. I connected her Mail app to exchange and dragged the mail folders from the 'On my mac' area into exchange which appeared to transfer them fine, however the date of the emails that have been transferred to exchange has now changed to the a recent date (rather than the date the emails were originally received). Has anyone else had this issue and know how to transfer email mailboxes across without the date being overwritten? Outlook 2016 offers sync to Google contacts and Outlook.com contacts now. In Contacts add either Google or Outlook.com account.
Drag your iCloud contacts to the new account. Add the account in Outlook 2016 and your contacts will sync to Outlook. Continue using account so your contacts will be backed up online and accessible on your other devices like your iCloud contacts were previously. To verify whether a Google account you added to Outlook supports Google contacts and calendars, go to Outlook's 'Tools' tab - 'Accounts' button, and select your Google account. In the right pane, under your account name, the account type (IMAP or Google) will be shown.
'Google' means you have access to Google calendar and contacts. For more details, please refer to.
