Migrate mail server from other server
I have a mail server (AXIGEN) and I would like to transfer all mails from AXIGEN to cPanel.
When I installed Axigen, I had an AUTOMIGRATION option where the old mail server was set.
When I activated it when users were trying to log in to the new server, automigration checks if the respective user with the entered password can log in in to the old server. If these were correct at this moment, the auto-migration option creates a new email account automatically with those credentials and copies all emails from the old server to the new server in that email account
It is possible in cPanel to automigrate mail account from different mail server ?

WHM has a built in transfer tool but it's designed to transfer accounts from other control panels, not from a stand alone mail server. You may want to look at imapsync. It's not automatic. You'll have to create the mailboxes on the cPanel server and had the user-id/password for the accounts on both servers.

If they use the same mailbox format as cPanel do then you might be able to just copy over the folders manually otherwise you will need to re-create email accounts on cPanel side and manually move over the messages.

I know about imapsync but it is a problem. Imapsync must have the passwords... so it doesn't work. What do you do if you want to migrate from office365, gmail, etc ?
