    Hello everyone,

    I host several domains with my old hosting company. Now, i want just move one domain. With all the mails, but from that domain only. Can i move just that mail folder and put the folder "domainToMigrate.com" to my new cPanel ?
    The web is full of "how to do" for migrating the whole mail folder, but i found nothing about migrating only one domain among others.
    Thank you for reading.

    It seems to me that the easiest way is to migrate it all, then delete the folders that you don't want.

    Thank you for your advice, Mmerlinn.
    I also made some experiments. It seems, if i move only one mail folder, it's working too (without any guarantees). I just tried once.

    If you hosted several domains as addon domains in a single cPanel hosting account, you could migrate all of the related files and directories like web files, email directories and databases separately to the same directories in a new host. Then correct config files and links. You can configure new DNS settings on your domain by completing the mentioned steps.
