Hi. I am in over my head and asking for help. Around 20 years ago I had an email and domain name only package with Go Daddy. We have four email addresses for the family. It went from under 20 bucks a year to a couple hundred dollars a year. If it makes a difference, I don’t use the webpage, just the email. Go Daddy used to have their own email platform but now use Outlook online. On our phones we just use the email app.
I understand there are other companies out there that will host my email, but I’m not sure how I would switch to another company without losing all of my archives of saved emails. For each account.
I am in over my head. I don’t know what I’m doing anymore. Is there any other service I can switch to that might be less money than Go Daddy that would allow me to keep my emails?
I have searched Reddit, but can’t seem to get a firm understanding. on our phones we just use the email app. I will appreciate any and all advice about how I can get what I’m looking for. Thank you so much.
Imapsync. Used by Linux engineers since forever to copy email accounts from one server to another
To add onto this for OP, if you are unable to dedicate the time to learn enough to utilize imapsync, using a site like Upwork to hire someone to do it for you should still cost less than your yearly spend. Keep in mind anyone using the tool on your behalf would be able to keep a copy of all your emails for themselves, so there is definitely some motivation to learn there.
