Hi,

Just so we are clear, the only thing you can transfer from everyone.net is their username and password. All mail, addressbook, etc, can not be transferred (as everyone.net does not let you have access to this).

How it would work is:

1. Install Gossamer Mail on your domain freemail.yourdomain.com.
2. Test and customize Gossamer Mail to suit your needs.
3. Import your existing usernames into Gossamer Mail (everyone.net gives you a list of all your users you have currently, but not their passwords).
4. Switch the MX records from everyone.net to your own server. At this point, the service is live, and you would point everyone to login to Gossamer Mail now, and not everyone.net.
5. When a user logs in to Gossamer Mail, it will check if the password they entered is valid. If not, it will check if it is valid on everyone.net. If it is valid on everyone.net, it will update the password in Gossamer Mail, and allow them access.

Does this make sense? It's not the best solution, as all it provides is that a user can keep their username@domain.com email address.

Hope that helps,

Alex
