WYNTK: Office 365
<< >> Staff –
We will be migrating your email system this weekend from your existing << service or ‘in-house’ server >> to Office 365.
Here’s what you need to know:
Before leaving for the weekend:
- Please save and close any open programs and/or documents, but DO NOT power off your computer as we will need to remote in.
Migration: Begins on <<Friday November 2nd>> at 6 PM
- After 6 PM, please do NOT use your work email on either your desktop nor on your mobile device – failure to do so may result in loss of email
Access to email over the weekend
- You can safely access your work email using the Outlook web portal: https://portal.office.com to send/receive messages
- If you need to access/use your work computer during the migration process, please let me know as soon as possible by email (support@digiboon.com) or text (914-841-7927).
Mobile Devices
- You will need to (a) delete your existing OR mailbox from your mobile device and (b) re-add it using your email address and password once the migration is complete
- You should be able to do so effective Saturday after 12 PM, but it would be best to text me (914-841-7927) to verify before doing so. Otherwise, we can address the mobile devices on Monday.
- Your password should be the same as it is now – If you don’t know it you can text/email me
Contacts
- Contacts within your ‘Contacts’ folder will migrate over
- Distribution groups within your contacts folder will NOT migrate over – Please document or specify which groups you will need – if any and we can recover them
- Auto-completed (i.e. the email addresses that auto-populate as you type a new email) contacts will NOT be migrated over
Shared Calendars
- Any shared calendars will need to be re-shared after the migration (i.e. next week)
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.
