Email migration
Migrate your email from OVHcloud
OVHcloud MX Plan mailboxes run on a shared server. Enter your address and password and we copy everything to the new mailbox, leaving the original untouched.
Server settings
You don’t have to type these in — we work them out from your email address. They’re here for transparency, or in case your provider uses different values.
| IMAP server | Port | Security |
|---|---|---|
ssl0.ovh.net | 993 | SSL/TLS |
Username: your full email address
Good to know before you start
MX Plan mailboxes connect to ssl0.ovh.net with the full address as the username. OVHcloud’s Exchange mailboxes run on Microsoft infrastructure and need a different kind of access.
The password is the one set for that individual mailbox in the OVHcloud Control Panel, not your account password.
If you’re moving the whole domain, do the main copy before changing the MX records and the final top-up right after.
How it works
Enter your OVHcloud address and password: we recognise the server and count your emails.
Tell us your new mailbox: we check we can sign in before asking for any payment.
Pay once and watch the copy live. Your OVHcloud mailbox stays exactly as it is.
Frequently asked questions
Can I migrate an OVHcloud Exchange mailbox?
Only if IMAP password access is enabled on the mailbox. If in doubt, run the check — it’s free.
How long does it take?
It depends on size: a few minutes for a few thousand emails, a few hours for tens of GB. You can close the page.
Ready to move your email?
We check both mailboxes before you pay. Free up to 3 GB, then from $4.99.
