Migrating from Google Workspaces to iCloud+ | Blah, Cloud

Google recently accounced that it was getting rid of the legacy free tier for Google Apps/Workspace accounts, something I've used for 10+ years, and I don't care for that. I already pay for iCloud+ and it allows custom domains, so let the migration begin!

After days of dealing with Gmail authentication errors (MFA disabled with Less Secure App Access enabled or MFA enabled with App specific password), verifying with Google using the following URL instantly worked: https://google.com/accounts/DisplayUnlockCaptcha

Let me pile on by saying how much I appreciate your putting this together. Extremely helpful! I have not been a Docker user in the past, and really don't have the time or desire to dig into it. Nor do I want to spin up an imapsync instance on my local machine. As I was going through your helpful tutorial and looking into options I stumbled upon this site: https://imapsync.lamiral.info/ that actually has a web hosted solution. After verifying it with an authentication test I paid 30 euro for unlimited access, and my 385,323 emails are currently syncing. Money well spent for me! The console is estimating ~6 more days until completion. Running the web page instance on a headless M1 Mac Mini that I use as a utility server (it also runs my Scrypted instance and hosts media for Plex). Thanks again!

Yup, everything in the one mailbox.

This is very helpful, thank you.

Is it correct to say that iCloud doesn't treat each of the domain email addresses as separate accounts/mailboxes, and everything (your original @. email plus the new @. email address) is lumped together in the original single iCloud mailbox?

I've gone through documentation and used your example above, and no matter what I try I end up with the error "Unknown option: gmail1" - any ideas?

@Cyberdelia1 howdy!

Would you mind posting a nulled version of your config so I can have a look?

I have an alias on my google account, i.e. a@yourdomain.com and info@yourdomain.com both route to a@yourdomain.com (info being the alias). If I follow your (very well written) instructions, how do I maintain the alias?

mylesagray commented 1 year ago

@azad-h I've since moved everything to Proton Mail, but as far as I remember there is the ability to add up to 10? Aliases to the custom domains profile on Apple.

Does anyone know how to handle this if my apple id is actually my email address on a custom domain? It seems that in order to make this work, I need an apple id with @icloud.com email address, which is then a new apple id and unacceptable (so many things are tied to myname@mydomain.com apple id, like family memberships, pictures etc.).

My Apple ID is a custom domain (the same domain I used to migrate to iCloud). It will work.

Same, mine was custom domain and it was fine. On Thu, Sep 14, 2023 at 05:12, rdlink @.***> wrote:

Wow - after days of trying to figure out a solution, you have nailed it. Thanks very much for taking the time to write this up!
