How to Migrate Gmail Email to cPanel Account?

To migrate Gmail emails to cPanel account manually, you will first need to enable IMAP from your Gmail account and enable an app password to securely connect to your Gmail account. You would then set up both the Gmail account and cPanel accounts in an email program such as Outlook and Thunderbird. You would then drag and drop the desired emails from the Gmail folders to cPanel's mailbox. This will transfer the emails without using a third-party email migration application and gives you the ability to move only the folder you want without moving all emails from each cPanel mailbox.

However, you should consider that this option is not without its flaws. This process will take a long time depending on how many emails you might have, which means you would need to have some level of technical knowledge on how to navigate your email software and you could lose your migration work if you suffer from incomplete work due to internet connectivity. If you are attempting to migrate large mailboxes, you might experience delays in syncing, duplicate data in your cPanel mailbox, or missing travel attachments.

Furthermore, you might want to consider using the MacSonik Gmail Backup tool, which is considered to be one of the best utilities and can simplify your task of migrating. You can backup your Gmail email into multiple formats, or simply migrate your Gmail email account to any email service, including IMAP email services, Gmail and more.
