Claude.Ai Saves the day on Email Transfers

Navigating a predominantly “linux command line” world on a Windows 11 machine has its moments. 

Old jokes that “lose something in the translation” come to mind.

I recently needed to move a client’s email from our old hosting company to the new one.  Because the client had over 550MB of email scattered across multiple folders, this was not a simple “download, unzip and then upload” moment. 

Instead I used Claude.ai to guide me.  Once we finally got it all done, I asked Claude to consolidate the steps into the document below.  Client names and other special info were removed.  I hope this can server a as guide post to the next pilgrim to come this way.
