To transfer emails from Horde to Gmail, you can follow either a manual method using Gmail's settings or utilize specialized software for a more direct migration. Here’s a detailed guide on both approaches:

Manual Method Using Gmail​

  • Start by signing into your Gmail account.
  • Click on the gear icon in the upper right corner and select Settings.
  • Navigate to the Accounts and Import tab.
  • Click on Add a mail account.
  • Input your Horde webmail email address and click Next.
  • Choose the option to Import emails from any other account (POP3) and click Next.
  • Enter your Horde email username and password.
  • Set the POP Server to the appropriate server settings for Horde.
  • Use port number 110.
  • Click on Add Account to start importing your emails. This method typically imports only the inbox emails and may not allow selective transfers.

Using Software for Direct Migration​

For a more efficient and comprehensive transfer, consider using a dedicated software tool designed for migrating emails from Horde to Gmail:

Steps for Using Migration Software​

Try Cigati IMAP Mail Backup Tool:
  • Download and install the Cigati IMAP Backup Tool.
  • Enter your Horde login credentials along with server details.
  • Select the folders you wish to migrate.
  • Choose Gmail as the destination and provide your Gmail credentials.
  • Authenticate your Gmail account within the tool.
  • Start the migration process, which should complete quickly with a confirmation message once done.

Conclusion​

Both methods are effective for transferring emails from Horde to Gmail, but using specialized software can simplify the process, especially if you need to migrate multiple folders or maintain specific email attributes. Choose based on your comfort level with technology and the volume of emails you need to transfer.
