Exporting Email When Departing

Continue Accessing Data After Moving On

Exporting a user's emails requires that to have a medium to transfer the data onto. This can be in the form of a CD, DVD, flash drive, or portable hard drive. Each of these types have their own size limitations, so depending on the amount of email and size of attachments selected you may not be able to transfer all at once. You also require a connection to your email through Microsoft Office Outlook. If you are working from home, you may have to follow these instructions for your Windows PC or Mac to access your email through Microsoft Office Outlook.
