This page documents the steps to migrate a mailbox using EdbMails. These instructions are specifically for migrating Domino mail files to Microsoft/Office 365, but the tool can be used for other types of migrations.

* Export the desired NSF file from Domino. One way is to use i Access Client Solutions (IFS browser), navigate to the Domino\mail folder, and download the file. ''Currently, LAB-PC is low in storage, so exporting to a location on superserver is recommended. Take caution where this file is exported to - this is someone's mail file...''

* Once the mail file is loaded, specify the folders to be included on the left. It is highly recommended to uncheck All (this will create an All folder with a second copy of each document in the Inbox, Sent etc.). There are also "folders" such as (Rules) and (Group Calendars) that are largely unused and can be excluded.
* Once folder selection is complete, choose Export to 365.
* Sign in as a global administrator. This signs in to 365 in impersonation mode, which is the optimal method (regular users may be subject to bandwidth throttling or have insufficient permissions)

* Map the NSF mailbox to the O365 mailbox as shown below. Make sure to choose Migrate as the Action.
* Prior to proceeding, set any filters necessary. These filters take effect for future migrations, so remember to check them each time. For the initial migration, a Date filter of "Items received 'After Date'" is specified.
