Transferring Your Existing Email

If you have email in your AGMD account that it is import for you to keep, you should transfer those messages to your new inbox. This process can be time consuming, depending on the number of messages you have. Also, if you currently only use your AGMD address in a web browser, you will need to add both that and your new lacagwm.org address to a computer mail client.

This process cannot be done easily on a mobile device, so please use your Mac or Windows computer. The steps below will help guide you through the basic steps. But keep in mind every situation is different.

1. Open the email client you use to access both of your accounts.
