Additional Tips

• Data Limitations: Zoho Mail has a limit of 25,000 emails per account. If you have more than 25,000 emails, you may need to use a third-party migration tool or split your data into smaller chunks.
• Data Format: Zoho Mail supports MBOX, EML, and PST file formats. If your data is in a different format, you may need to convert it before migrating.
• Data Integrity: During the migration process, it's essential to ensure data integrity by checking for any errors or inconsistencies in your data.
• Post-Migration Tasks: After the migration is complete, you may need to update your email clients, bookmarks, and other applications to point to your new Zoho Mail account.
