This approach involves creating a backup of the existing server and restoring it on the new server.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the steps to follow to begin the process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>First,<strong> log in<\/strong> to your <strong>existing Kerio Connect Server<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then, go to <strong>Server<\/strong> &gt;<strong> Backup<\/strong> and take a full backup of the current server.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After that, <strong>install<\/strong> the same <strong>Kerio Connect version<\/strong> on the<strong> new server<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then, open the <strong>Kerio Connect Administration Console<\/strong> on the new server.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now, navigate to<strong> Server<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Restore<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, select the <strong>backup from Step 2<\/strong> and follow the on-screen prompt to restore the backup.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Limitations:<\/strong> For large mailboxes and multiple accounts, the entire process may take several hours. Any kind of power failure or interruption during the backup\/restore process may lead to data loss.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_02_Using_IMAP_Method\"><\/span>Solution 02: Using IMAP Method&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The IMAP protocol allows users to copy the emails from the existing Kerio Connect server to a new server. The Kerio Connect migrate to new server process is useful when the new server is running on a different version.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow the steps given below to start the process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Firstly, make sure that <strong>both servers<\/strong> have <strong>IMAP enabled<\/strong> on them.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then, <strong>pick<\/strong> an email client, such as <strong>Outlook<\/strong> or <strong>Thunderbird<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now, <strong>connect both the servers<\/strong> using the <strong>IMAP<\/strong> protocol.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Log in <\/strong>to each user&#8217;s mailbox, both on the existing and new server.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, <strong>drag and drop<\/strong> the emails from the existing server to the new server.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Limitations:<\/strong> This method does not automatically transfer user accounts, calendars, contacts, or server settings. Only with careful mapping of the mailboxes can users ensure that their emails aren\u2019t lost.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_03_A_Professional_Tool_to_Migrate_Kerio_Connect_to_New_Server_Without_Downtime\"><\/span>Solution 03: A Professional Tool to Migrate Kerio Connect to New Server Without Downtime<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the <strong>Cigati IMAP Backup Tool<\/strong>, businesses and individuals can efficiently manage email data.

They are: backup and restore, IMAP migrations, and using a professional tool. Although the manual steps work well, they do not ensure data reliability. Therefore, choosing a reliable professional tool is recommended.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1758525114642\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Q: Can I keep the same domain and email addresses after migration?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\"><strong>Ans:<\/strong> Yes, you can. However, you still need to do it manually. The domain remains the same, but you need to update the DNS records. For the same email IDs, you are required to create the same email addresses on both the old and new servers.
