How to migrate mail from cabinets in GW 8.x to Gmail

Hi,
I've got a Groupwise 8.x email account and my only access is from a web browser. This account is being deactivated, and so I want to migrate all my email to my Gmail account. Through the settings of my Gmail account, I was able to IMPORT email from the Inbox of my Groupwise account. But, that step did not export any mail contained in my cabinets.
I found some help online that showed how to EXPORT mail from the cabinet folders, but you have to have the actual Email client to do this, and I only have access from my browser. I can export mail items one at a time, but since I have many email items, I figured that there has to be a better way.
Can anyone offer me some sugggestions and/or links to help?
Thank you in advance.
Scotty

Well it does require a little bit of configuration. "Little" things like
pointing it to the GroupWise server, which depending on the size of the
system may well be the same host name as used for webaccess, and the
default post office port is 1677. What tripped you up in connecting?

Well you do have an account that you are trying to get mail out of, that
is the account you would be using, selecting the IMAP option and
pointing it to the GroupWise server.
And you have an account you are trying to get your mail into, your GMail
account, that you'd also have to connect to via IMAP.

Select all messages from a cabinet folder, Drag and drop them into
GMAIL. Rinse and repeat per folder.

    I just finished migrating a client from Google Apps to Microsoft Exchange Online using the IMAP option in the Microsoft Online Services Migration Tool.  
    I added the mailboxes by creating a CSV file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_Mailboxes.csv] in the following format:
    SourceIdentity,SourceServer,SourceLoginID,SourcePassword,TargetIdentity
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword1,[email protected]
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword2,[email protected]
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword3,[email protected]
    Then I created a custom folder map XML file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_FolderMap.xml] to map the Google Apps (Gmail) labels to the appropriate Exchange (Outlook) mailbox folders and create those that didn't exist (i.e. Important, Starred, Follow up,
    Misc, Priority) as sub-folders under the Inbox:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <FolderMappings xmlns="http://tempuri.org/FolderMap.xsd">
    <!-- This xml contains the mapping of foldername in source server to folders in target server -->
    <!--
    "path" is the name of the folder in source server
    "Name" is the name of the folder to be mapped into target server
    "SpecialFolder" is the name of the special folder to be mapped into

    Inbox
    Calendar
    Tasks
    Sent Items

    Contacts

    Additionally, I had to tell the Internet E-mail Mailbox Migration Wizard to use the "Individual Account Credentials" option since I was able to specify each account password in the CSV file when adding the mailboxes to Microsoft Online Services Migration
    Tools console.
    Just to note, the users had to manually export their contacts to a CSV file and calendars to iCal (ICS) files in order to import those items into Outlook.
    I hope this will benefit others since Microsoft doesn't seem to have a custom, specifically defined migration strategy for this scenario.  With Google Apps being in direct competition with BPOS/Office365, I assumed that Microsoft would have a simple
    strategy using something like ActiveSync to facilitate the migration of email, contacts, calendar entries, etc.  Hopefully we'll see something along those lines become available in a future release of the migration tools.

  • How to Migrate Mail from One Mac Computer (MBP) to another Mac Computer (MBA)

    I just bought a Mac Book Air (OS X Mavericks, Mac Mail) after a couple of years using a Mac Book Pro (OS X Mavericks, Mac Mail) and need to migrate my mail from MBP to MBA. Is there any steps to follow

    MVP - if you still need the advice, or if any others come across this thread hoping it will help.
    The simplest way is now that you have your mail files copied from the old Mac (as per:
    Grant Lenahan
    Simply move over your users/you/library/mail folder ( it has all the mail files).
    Now launch Mail on the new Mac and go to File > Import Mailboxes
    Select the mail boxes you want to import and Bob's your mother's brother!
    Works a treat!

  • How to migrate content from BW 3.1 to NetWeaver 7.0

    Hello all out there,
    For a couple of years I have been successfully using SDN, finding always the right answer to my questions, however in my late assignment things have not been running that smoothly.
    This is my first posting to SDN and I hope any of you out there can give me a hand.
    <b>My Case:</b>
    We are planning to upgrade from BW 3.1 directly into NetWeaver 7.0
    <b>Our previous research within our planning phase has taking us to read:</b>
    •Everything under the Marketplace NetWeaver Upgrade portal (https://websmp204.sap-ag.de/upgradenw70)
    •Upgrade Master Guide
    •Many docs in SDN
    <b>My Question:</b>
    Based on our research, we have a good understanding about the technical upgrade path and the creation of a new landscape. However anything we have read explains about how to migrate our actual Queries, ODS, Web Templates, Infocubes, Update Rules, InfoObjects, etc to the new environment.
    <b>Could you please point me to the right literature, how to guide, migration path, etc; explaining how to migration content from BW 3.1 to NetWeaver 7.0</b>

    Incorrect link to "OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mountain Lion and earlier". Should be http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6025

    I think the OP is saying OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mountain Lion and earlier (which should be a link to HT4889) just links back to OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mavericks (HT5872).
    It does indeed do that, & HT4889 seems to be MIA.

  • How to migrate DB from single node 10gR2 to RAC 11gR2 on diff platform?

    How to migrate DB from single node 10gR2 to RAC 11gR2 on different platform with possible minimum downtime? We have a situation of upgrade/migrate oracle 10gR2 single instance DB to 2-node RAC 11gR. The source OS is Solaris 10 on SPARC and the target OS is Linux (the target servers could be changed to Solaris 11 x86 if needed). What is the best solution on that?
    Thanks,

    Technically, can do the following for upgrading and migration?
    1. Create 11gR2 oracle home on the same server and upgrade the database from 10gR2 to 11gR2 by running conversion (2 hour down time?)
    2. Set up Heterogeneous Primary and Physical Standbys by RMAN. The standby is the RAC with ASM. No need down time. (from Solaris Space to Linux - this may be a problem)
    3. At the cutoff time, activate the standby DB from the RAC ASM.
    If feasible, do we have some detail guild line for each step?

  • How to migrate data from MS Access to Oracle???????

    how to migrate data from MS Access to Oracle???????

    You can use heterogeneous services (HS) connection to MS-Access from Oracle and still use the same PL/SQL (or even a single CTAS statement) or SQL to load directly to Oracle tables. It's transparent, quick and clean as opposed to writing complex control files.
    You might have to set the ODBC connection to your Access database and add the details to Oracle listener.
    Please let me know if you are not sure how to set up the connection.

    How to stop mail from recovering the same message over and over again to the extent that it has wiped out all start up disk memory?

    You need to find and delete (move to the Trash) the offline mail cache (.offline cache.) It's a hidden folder (files and folders with a preceding dot are hidden) inside the Mail folder (inside IMAP) in your user library. Since it's hidden, in order to see it run the following command in Terminal in Applications>Utilities. Hit return/enter once you have pasted in the command.
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true ; killall Finder
    To reverse this and hide all those hidden files and folders again
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool false ; killall Finder
    Leave hidden files/folders enabled until you finish emptying the Trash so you know it's gone.

    This is a related question.
    I deleted ALL my previous recipients and when I create a new e-mail it STILL is getting addresses that I don't want - they pop up and I don't know how to stop this!
    I switched from one ISP to another - I deleted the old e-mail account in MAIL - I DID use the same name on the account - is that why it keeps bringing up the old address?
