Begin Migration
When you begin migration, note the mailbox size and estimated duration.

Confirm Migration
Your migration will show as complete if there are no errors and you will receive an email confirmation. Check your destination mailbox for transferred data.
Your MX records should already be pointing at the OX toolbox if this service is an add-on to a valid hosting account in WHMCS.
If this was a standalone service then the MX records will need to be reverted manually, you can find the records to use here.
Delta Migration
After your MX records have resolved and mail is flowing to your new mailbox, you can perform a Delta migration. This will ensure any mail that was delivered during MX change will be migrated to your new inbox.
Please wait 24 hours before performing the migration.
