RE: Peter Borbat's email migration .(as of 4/19/13)
- Peter must settle on an email client, or commit to only using email via the web application, <cornell.outlook.com>. ChemIT recommends MS Outlook 2010.
- Barriers Peter cites: He uses Office 2003 (on WinXP SP3), and doesn't want to upgrade to Outlook 2010. I suggested this be a good time to upgrade not only your Office, but also your OS (to Win7). There are emerging an increased number of "pros" (and "cons" for not upgrading!) so these must be weighed against Peter's reasons not to change (like Office's different interface, etc.).
- Michael Hint: Install If Peter commits to MS Outlook 2012, Install on Peter's computer ((WinXP SP3) computer. Resolve MS Office 2003 vs. MS Office 2010 issue. Now time to upgrade to Win 7, in Oliver's opinion.
- Peter to modify email routing in two locations in quick succession.
- 1) Peter to use WhoIAm to stop routing from NetID@cornell.edu address to CCMR email storage.
- 2) Peter to log into CCMR account and configure it so any new email arriving there gets forwarded to his NetID@cornell.edu. (This MUST be done only after step (1)!)
- Michael Hint: Get copy of Peter's email from AFS and convert and upload it to Office 365.Idea: Use .
- Peter shared with Oliver that a migration will work best on a Tuesday on almost any week (4/18/13).
- Likely will use CU Address Magic.
- Peter to then confirm this complete conversion worked as expected.
OlvierOliver's suggestion : After migration, Peter arrange (4/18/13), post migration and when we no longer have any dependencies on CCMR's email services: Peter arrange with ChemIT to convert his local store of email to a *pst format so can be seen and managed from within Outlook, too. Peter wants to clean out the "private" email from this store before considering moving up to Office 365, but this local store would be a good interim step.

Oliver's meeting notes, 11/28/12's mtg

(a) Receiving exists. Currently, the Exchange email group at CIT has configured their mail routers to handle mail to users @ccmr.cornell.edu. All we need to do is establish a mapping for folks to continue to receive email. E.g. ppb//AT//ccmr.cornell.edu -> pb41//AT//cornell.edu. Sending as the old address still needs some work, but CIT has assured me that the outgoing name of ppb//AT//ccmr.cornell.edu could be established for pb41. I don't don’t recommend this, but if you want it, you need to let me know.
