After you have signed up for an IUP Live Mail account and you have received confirmation that your new account has been created, you have the option to connect your IUP e-mail account (if it is still active). Once this is has been completed, all e-mails and folders from your IUP e-mail account will be transferred over and any new e-mail sent to your IUP account will appear in your new IUP Live Mail. These messages will continue to appear in both accounts until your 60-day extension has expired and your IUP e-mail account is disabled.
To import all of the messages that you received in your IUP e-mail account:
- Log in to your new IUP Live Mail account at http://outlook.com/.
- In the top right-hand corner, select Options.
- Select See All Options…
- Under Shortcuts to other things you can do, select Forward your e-mail.
- Under Connected Accounts, select New.
- Enter your full imail account name (ex: wxyz@iup.edu).
- Enter your current imail password.
- Select Next.
- Wait until you see the New Account Connection Confirmation screen that says that your accounts are connected.
- Select Finish.
Please note that this will import (copy) all of your existing messages and folders from your IUP imail account. Due to the default folder names in IUP Live Mail, you may have to combine folders that have duplicate names.
