Migrating Hotmail emails to Gmail can be done manually, but it requires a few steps. First, enable POP or IMAP settings in Hotmail, then add your Hotmail account to Gmail by navigating to Gmail's "Accounts and Import" settings and using the "Import mail and contacts" option. This method may take several hours or days, depending on your mailbox size, and may not migrate all folders. Manual migration also risks data loss or missing emails due to interruptions.
To simplify this process, using the Migrate Cloud Data Hotmail Backup Tool is a better option. This tool allows seamless transfer of emails from Hotmail to Gmail with just a few clicks. It ensures all emails, attachments, and folders are moved without any data loss. Additionally, it offers filtering options for selective migration, which saves time and ensures accuracy. The tool provides a hassle-free migration experience, making it a preferred choice over the manual method.
