Migrating contacts from AirMail to MS 365

  1. Log in to your webmail account.
  2. Export your contacts from webmail in CSV format.
  3. Open the exported CSV file in Microsoft WordPad and save it.
    • Please note: This step is necessary so that you can import the file into Outlook later.

Prerequisites​

Importing the CSV file into Outlook​

  1. Import the CSV file into Outlook using the Import/Export Wizard.

    • The steps required are described in the following Microsoft Office Help article: Importing contacts into Outlook.

  2. Follow steps 1–8 as described there, and then specify how the contact details from the exported file should be mapped. To do this, click on ‘Map custom fields...’

  3. Drag the relevant fields from the source file (left-hand column) onto the desired destination field (right-hand column). To complete the import of your contacts, click ‘Finish’.

    • For example: To map the fields correctly in the example below, drag the ‘Sur Name’ entry from the left-hand column into the ‘Last Name’ field in the right-hand column. Then drag the ‘Given Name’ entry into the ‘First Name’ field. Carry out these steps for all relevant fields that have not been mapped automatically.
