Setting up Zoho Mail in Office 365 could be a little challenging process, but you can do it by following some simple steps. As we all know, Zoho Mail is a famous email service provider for small businesses, but sometimes it can be hard to use. On the other hand, Office 365 is user-friendly, has better security, and provides many useful Microsoft tools like Word and Excel. Below, I’ll explain how to set up Zoho Mail in Office 365 in two ways: manually and automatically.
Step 1: Set up Zoho with Office 365
Open Outlook on your computer and click on the File tab.
Click on Add Account and type in your Zoho Mail details.
Then select Advanced options and check the box that says Let me set up my account manually. Click Connect.
Choose the IMAP option and fill in the necessary IMAP and SMTP settings.
Enter your Zoho password and click Connect.
Step 2: Export Zoho Mail to PST Format
Open MS Outlook and navigate to the File menu.
Select Open & Export, then click on Import/Export.
Choose Export to a file and select the choice for Outlook Data File (.pst)
Select the mailbox folder you want to export and where you want to save the PST file.
You can click the Finish button to export your Zoho Mail into PST format.
Step 3: Migrate the PST File to Office 365
Make sure your Office 365 is opened in Outlook.
Go to File, then Open & Export, and select Import from another file or program.
Choose the file type as an Outlook Data File (.pst) and select where you want to put it in your Office 365 mailbox.
Click Browse, locate your PST file, and click Finish.
This manual method of migrating Zoho Mail to Office 365 is clear but at the same time, it has some drawbacks such as with a large number of emails, this process might take too much time. This method works well with a smaller number of emails and there is also a risk of losing data during the process. Also, you might get duplicate emails after moving them and you cannot save attachments separately. So for a smoother experience, you can use a professional tool like the MigrateEmails Zoho Migration Tool. This tool will let you move all your emails quickly, keep your data safe, remove duplicates, and work with different file formats like PST, MSG, and EML.
