Most mail servers will not pass the mail to the MX server if the domain of local domains, this is why that should be a redirect to a domain that is not part of the local areas. During replication DNS MX records, emails can be received on both platforms.


To migrate from an ex isting e-mail to our ex platform 10you need to have the management of the legacy messaging system, complete management of DNS and your access to the manager ex 10

Here are the steps to follow :

1. To create boxes ex isting mails on the old system of identical on the platform messaging Hosted exchange 2010 with your domain : yourdomain.com

2. Created accounts, need to add the domain ex 10.yourdomain.com to add this domain to alias accounts.


3. Add the MX record below the already present records :


ex    10.yourdomain.com    2       IN      MX      10 SMTP.ex     10.biz.


4. Once the effective DNS replication, need to do a test of sending mail to the addresses of the type account 1@ex 10.yourdomain.com and check from the web mail that the test email is in account 1@yourdomain.com


5. It will then take on the old messaging create a redirect so that the mail received at account 1@yourdomain.com be redirected to account 1@ex 10.yourdomain.com . A ce stade, les mails sont reçus par l'ancienne messagerie mais sont pris en account sur la plateforme exchange 2010.


6. Then do the DNS migration with the record specified in the faq below :

Configuration DNS pour nos offres Exchange

At this point messages can be received on both platforms, but all mail will be redirected on the platform exchange 2010.


7. Once all e-mail clients are configured to use the platform ex 10 (CF : Configuring Outlook) and that records DNS are completely replicated, you can disable the configuration of your old mail platform.


NB : If you make a ball by ball migration, you will need to contact support Ikoula to allow to the boxes ex 10 to communicate with those of the old platform which have not yet been created on Hosted Exchange 2010. To deliver mails to the ballroom of the old platform from ex 10, should not be that this same ball be created on ex 10.
