I just wanted to post a brief note about a back-end issues we’ve been having this past weekend. It appears as the problems originated from an updated we rolled out on Friday night (PST) and have been going on until about 30 minutes ago when we discovered it.

This problem affected ‘Step 1’ and ‘Step 2’ and resulted in that some users were unable to initiate transfers.

We sincerely apologize for this and we will be looking over our deployment routines to prevent this from happening again.

For a long time we’ve been planning to add support for calendar and contacts migration. We are now finally making progress in this area, but we’d love to hear what your thoughts are on this.

We’ve put together a very brief survey (just four questions). It will take you less than two minutes to complete. You can find the survey here.

Zenbe is phasing out their free email plan. Since they already have a lot of users on this plan, they wanted to offer these users a way to move their email to a new home.

Tom, the co-founder of Zenbe, reached out to us this past weekend and asked if we wanted to work with them on this project. Of course we want to. We are always excited to help users find a new home for their email - regardless of the reason.

So to all you Zenbe-users reading this - thank you for using YippieMove.

To Zenbe - thank you for reaching out to us.

We’re proud to introduce two new YippieMove partners today: LTech and Weird Kid Software. Both of these companies are leaders in their particular niche.

If you are moving from Microsoft Exchange to Google Apps, you really ought to look into LTech’s solutions. Their portfolio includes software such as contact and calendar migration, as well as their latest addition: CloudMove, a SharePoint to Google Apps migration tool.

Weird Kid Software offers a software named Emailchemy which is the number one software for geting email out of a proprietary email format, such as Outlook’s PST-files. The list of supported email formats Emailchemy is very long, and it includes pretty much every email format on the market. You can find the complete list here.

We are really happy to work with these companies. For more information about our partners, please visit our Partner-page.

Ever since we launched YippieMove, we’ve been planning on adding a blog. It’s not that we have no experience with blogging (we frequently blog for Email Service Guide and Playing With Wire), but rather the lack of time. Up to this point, we’ve primarily used Twitter for posting updates, but due to the 140 character limit, it’s not a perfect fit.

We’ll keep on using Twitter too, but adding a blog is in place.
