GMX to Outlook.com: Securely migrate your emails
Want to replace GMX with Outlook.com? You need a clean way to bring your old emails along. That is exactly what mailriva is for.
Why the official way is often not enough
Microsoft has removed direct support for connecting new third-party accounts in Outlook.com. This means there is no longer a built-in migration assistant for old personal accounts. mailriva fills exactly this gap — locally, controlled, and without entering your passwords in a browser.
How to transfer your GMX emails to Outlook.com
Enable IMAP at GMX
Log into GMX and enable IMAP in the settings under Email > POP3/IMAP.
Download mailriva
Download mailriva for free and install the app on your computer.
Connect GMX as source
Select GMX as the source provider and sign in within the app.
Connect Outlook.com as destination

Start the migration
Review the folder overview and start the transfer. Your GMX mailbox remains unchanged.
