In this kb article we are using gmail.com as an example. The same procedure can be used when moving from any other provider, for as far as that provider is using open standards, and when moving between kolab Now accounts.

John decided to move from gmail to Kolab Now.

	John’s gmail account contains a bunch of mails that he really would like to bring with him into his new Kolab Now account.
John already signed up and prepared his new Kolab Now account.
	He adds both the Kolab Now account and the gmail account to his Thunderbird desktop client following this knowledge base article from Kolab Now, and this article from mozilla support (for special gmail considerations).
Now he can highlight the mails that he wants to bring to Kolab Now in the one account, and then drag’n drop them to the other account
	Now John’s old mail from his gmail account are available in his now Kolab Now account
