Migrate Hostnet email to another provider

Move your email away from Hostnet to any other IMAP provider — without losing your old mailbox and without lock-in.

Set up IMAP access
  1. Log in to your Hostnet control panel.
  2. Go to Email → your mailbox → password, and use your regular mailbox password (Hostnet needs no app password for IMAP).
  3. Note the IMAP server mail.hostnet.nl, port 993 (SSL).

Moved in five steps

  1. Create a free account on emailmover.online and verify your e-mail address.
  2. Enter the IMAP details of your Hostnet mailbox (source) and your new mailbox (target).
  3. Click "Test for free" — you instantly see how many GB and messages there are to move.
  4. The first 0.5 GB is free; above that you pay €1 per GB. Start the migration.
  5. Feel free to close your laptop: the migration runs on our servers and we e-mail you when it is done.
