Moving Email to Gmail with Google Apps

A third party currently hosts our mail @ karova and I wanted to either host it ourselves or move to gmail with Google Apps. As a proof of concept I’ve moved the mail for the philroche.net domain to gmail. I have to say I am very impressed. I signed up for the 30 day free Google Apps premier edition so I was able to migrate all 29,000 of my imap mail over to gmail. The change in my MX records has not filtered through yet so I have a few emails that are still on my old server I’ll need to transfer somehow (without doing a complete migration again). Now I’ve got superb webmail, mobile access, Imap and POP3 with 99.9% uptime guarantee and 25GB space for only $50 a year. Bargain.
