I have been using email since I was 14 so it’s been a while… and I have always had a few Hotmail addresses during the years and mainly a hotmail person, even though I did have a few other email hosted on my Server…
I was quite excited when Microsoft introduced Custom Domains so I moved the MX record of nishv.com and pointed it to hotmail and started to use my personal email address…
This is when I wrote a post on Perfect Email System and it was pretty good until I started to get problems with Live Mail and frankly I have lost some of the old emails, so I wanted to find a solution to it. I wasn’t keen on staying with Hotmail and being a huge Google fan, I also had a choice on using Google Apps to host my domain with Google. Matter of fact, I signed up with Google Apps when it came out with my other domain nishv.net but didn’t have the time to do so…
So I pointed the MX record of my domain to Google Apps and so far I am quite pleased at the results but the painful part was moving about 1GB worth of E-mails from Hotmail to Google Hosted, but I am proud to say I have successfully accomplished this task and it did take me a few hours…
