AUTOMATED LARGE ATTACHMENT PROCESSING DURING MIGRATION

摘要

A network-based solution for automatically processing large email attachments or other files during migration between email platforms or other platforms, as may be embodied by various systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media, may involve downloading mailboxes from a source email platform and inspecting the mailboxes for emails containing attachment files. The solution may involve determining a file size of any detected attachment, comparing the file size of the detected attachment file to a predetermined attachment size limit, and uploading a copy of the detected attachment to a storage server for storage when the comparison determines that the file size of the detected attachment file exceeds the predetermined attachment size limit. The solution may further include modifying the email by replacing the detected attachment with a link to the copy of the detected attachment stored at the storage server and then migrating the modified email to the target email platform.

主权项

1. A system for automatically processing large email attachments during migration, the system comprising:
a source email platform hosted by a first computing device, the source email platform storing a plurality of mailboxes, each mailbox including a plurality of emails; a target email platform hosted by a second computing device; a storage server; and an application server communicatively coupled to the source email platform, the target email platform, and the storage server by a network, the application server having stored in memory a predetermined attachment size limit and an executable application that, when executed by a processor of the application server:
downloads the mailboxes from the source email platform;inspects each downloaded mailbox for an email containing an attachment file;determines a file size of a detected attachment file;compares the file size of the detected attachment file to the predetermined attachment size limit stored in memory;uploads a copy of the detected attachment to the storage server to be stored in memory when the comparison determines that the file size of the detected attachment file exceeds the predetermined attachment size limit stored in memory;modifies the email by replacing the detected attachment in the email with a link to the copy of the detected attachment stored at the storage server; andmigrates the modified email to the target email platform.
