MacSonik IMAP Backup Tool

CSV-Based Bulk Migration

Prepare a CSV file with the required account details and process multiple IMAP/POP3 accounts in a single migration process. This makes it easier to manage large migration projects while saving time and simplifying the overall migration workflow.

Batch Mapping

Administrators can configure source-to-destination mappings in bulk, instead of configuring each mailbox, making it ideal for large-scale migrations of IMAP/POP3 accounts to Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Exchange Online (EWS), and other supported destinations.

Mailbox Type Mapping

Mailbox Type mapping enables administrators to map source mailbox types to destination mailbox types during migration, supporting migrations involving Primary, Shared, Online Archive, Public Folder, and other mailbox types, providing increased control during migration of more complex, mixed mailbox environments.

Multiple Export Formats

Support for exporting emails from IMAP to PST, MBOX, PDF, EML, MSG, CSV, DOC, JSON, and DOCX formats according to the users’ requirements. Mailbox files can be prepared for migration, archive, compliance, documentation, or analysis while preserving the essential email content and details.

Direct Migration to Email Platforms

Export IMAP Emails to Yahoo Mail, Gmail, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Exchange Online(EWS), or another supported IMAP destination without creating unnecessary intermediate files. This streamlines the migration process and helps transfer mailbox data efficiently while maintaining the existing email structure and content.

Folder Hierarchy Preservation

The IMAP Email Backup Tool displays the source mailbox in a structured folder tree and maintains the available folder organization during migration or export. This keeps emails in their original folders, making it easier to access and manage the migrated data without manually reorganizing mailbox content.

Advanced Email Filtering

Select only the emails required for migration using flexible filtering options such as date range, sender, recipient, CC/BCC, subject, email body, and item type. You can also exclude deleted messages or empty folders to keep the migration focused and reduce unnecessary data transfer.

Incremental Migration

The incremental migration option identifies previously processed emails and skips them during subsequent migration runs. It transfers only newly added or updated data, helping reduce processing time and unnecessary data transfer. This is especially useful for staged migrations and projects that require multiple migration passes.

Duplicate Email Removal

The deduplication feature checks multiple message properties, including subject, sender, recipient, and body, to identify duplicate emails. It helps remove unnecessary copies from the resulting data, keeping the migrated or exported mailbox cleaner and reducing redundant storage and processing.

Attachment Management

Choose how attachments should be handled during export based on your requirements. Attachments can be retained with their emails, saved separately, or included with PDF output through the selected configuration. This provides greater flexibility for migration, archival, and documentation purposes.

Custom Folder Naming

Customize folder names during migration or export to create a clear and organized mailbox structure. Custom naming makes it easier to identify folders, distinguish between different migration jobs, and maintain a consistent output structure.

Large File Splitting

Split oversized PST and MBOX files into smaller segments for easier storage, transfer, and management. PDF output can also be generated as separate files or combined into a single document based on the selected settings, making large exports more convenient to handle.

Preview Before Migration

View the mailbox hierarchy, folders, and email counts before starting the migration. This lets you review the source data, verify the available mailbox content, and select only the folders and messages required for the migration. It helps ensure the migration is configured according to your specific requirements.

Activity Tracking and Reports

Monitor migration activity through the progress dashboard and review detailed reports showing processed, skipped, and failed items. Folder-level information provides better visibility into migration results, helping administrators verify completed data and quickly identify items that may require further attention.

Free Up Server Space

Remove successfully backed-up emails from the source mailbox to reduce storage usage and keep the mailbox organized.
Move to Bin/Trash: Moves processed emails to Trash for review or recovery if needed.
Permanently Deletes: Deletes processed emails without moving them to Trash. These emails may not be recoverable.

Secure IMAP Authentication

Connect to an IMAP/POP3 server using the required email address, password, host, and port information. Standard secure IMAP configurations such as SSL/TLS and STARTTLS are supported. The tool establishes a secure connection with the source mailbox to access email data while maintaining the integrity of messages, attachments, and folder structure throughout the process.
