Part 4 Migration and Deletion of GroupWise Account

MEMO- Migrating to MEMO from GroupWise

In order to make a smooth transition to the MEMO system from GroupWise there are a few things you must do ahead of time to prepare your GroupWise account for the migration. Instructions to help you prepare for the migration are available at this site. If you have questions or problems, you may contact the ITU Support Center for assistance.
Your Technical Coordinator will work with you us to get your account created and confirm that you are able to access the new account. Once you are notified that your MEMO account has been established you should begin to use your MEMO account at that time to familiarize yourself with the new mail system. Also once that account is created it will be able to receive email so you will need to check it to ensure that you do not miss any mail.
At that time you should also begin moving over any address books that you want to keep from the GroupWise system into the MEMO system, setting up a forward rule to forward mail from GroupWise to MEMO and unsubscribing from listserves. Your GroupWise account will remain in the system until your department has completed its migration procedures.
Once your department is complete your GroupWise account will be removed from the system and a pointer will be placed in the GroupWise address book so that people who are still using the GroupWise system can still easily send you mail. It is important to remember that once your GroupWise account has been deleted it cannot be restored. You will lose access to all e-mail messages, folders, address books, archives, and any other information contained in your GroupWise account that was not migrated. For this reason is it is important that if after the migration you feel that you are missing data you should contact your Technical Coordinator immediately.
