Incoming email settings
Updated over 2 weeks ago

Incoming email settings is a SharePoint list feature that gives your users the ability to send e-mail messages and attachments directly to a list or library in SharePoint when activated.

Symptoms

You notice the incoming email settings are not preserved at the destination after your migration.

Details

ShareGate Migrate does not preserve the incoming email settings. The application cannot activate the settings in an on-premises farm and the feature is deprecated in Microsoft 365.

Solution

If you are migrating to a on-premises version of SharePoint, you can activate this setting manually after the migration.

The setting does not exist in Microsoft 365. You can get similar functionality with Microsoft 365 Groups.
