FirstClass Procedures to Forward Mail or Save to File

FirstClass data will not be mass-migrated to the new Google@CPS accounts. However, we know that you may have some messages that you would like to preserve.  This can be done by either forwarding them to your new Google@CPS account, or by saving the messages as files.  

To forward FirstClass messages to your Google@CPS account:

1. Open the message in your FirstClass mailbox or conference/workspace container.
2. Select the Forward icon from your Toolbar, or click Message → Forward.
3. Enter your own email address: username@cps.edu in the To: line as the recipient.
4. Click Send from your toolbar and the message will be redirected to your Google@CPS account.
5. NOTE: Forwarded messages will be subject to the CPS retention policy of one year, after which they will be purged from either mailbox.

To save FirstClass messages as files (Save multiple messages at once):

1. Select one or multiple message(s) from your mailbox or conference/workspace container.
2. Select File → Export.  A Browse for Folder window will appear.
3. Select the file location where you would like to save the message(s) and select OK.
4. Your messages will be saved to the file location.  
5. Each message will create its own folder with three different file type options for you to view your message: Rich Text Format (MS Word), Text Document (Notepad), and XML Document (View in Web Browser).
