Do you plan to support batch import?
@Horacio Stolovitzky
Hi! There are no such plans yet, but feel free to vote for this feature on our UserVoice portal. Our developers are constantly monitoring the suggestions, and the most demanded ones are implemented in the next Plesk versions.
Hi, unfortunately, after reimporing/updating accounts, all e-mail addresses that I imported dsiappeared from the overview, but in the file: /usr/local/psa/var/modules/site-import/sessions/mail-migration-7/mail_migration_settings.json all adresses are still visible.
How can I restore my import status?
Hi @Jakob,
If I understood correctly after importing the mail content the mailboxes disappeared from Domains >example.com > Email Addresses.

Hello
I'm using Site Import Versión 1.4.5-411 in Plesk Onyx v17.8.11_build1708180301.19 os_RedHat el6.
I'm having issues with all email migrations. All migrated mails from a remote server appear to have changed encoding or format in the destination mailbox.
When the mails are downloaded in a mail client like Outlook or Mail (mac) all messages appear without subject, or from address message body is text with no images or format at all.
I've tried this with 2 different customers with different domains and from different cpanel servers with the same result.

Hello, email import featuring works very well.
But i have one question that irritates me a little.
I have importet two Email accounts from Gmail.
Without any issues, but the imported account have on gmail much less size of storage.
Ex.: 0,58 GB (Gmail) -> 1.49 GB (Plesk)
3,06GB (Gmail) -> 8.06 GB (Plesk)
Where does the difference come from?
Thanks
Tolga
Have imported many mails, worked great.
Have resynced for a few days to make sure mails delivered to the old host still get copied over.
Email "migration" now done.
How to clean out / empty the list?
It appears once the emails are in the migration list, they're there forever.
