They are migrating the email accounts over in batches. They will email you prior to your account moving.

I believe your Telus account login and password is totally independent from your Telus e-mail. You need your last valid Telus e-mail (webmail) password.

After migrating my telusplanet.net email to Google, I can't log into to Outlook to access the emails stored locally. How do access the emails that were not migrated over to Google?

martinwk You post is not clear.
"I can't log into to Outlook to access the emails stored locally."
Are you having trouble logging on to Outlook or you can log on but you can't see your locally stored emails?

Why is Telus such an unprincipled company? I cannot use Outlook either. I have spent all day with support and they can't help me.
I wonder if Telus is getting a kickback from Google for using their e-mail. Where is the CRTC which such things going on?

I am afraid it has been many years since I used Outlook and Outlook express. However, I find it strange that you cannot access locally stored e-mail. Outlook is just a PC run software program, and should not be denying you access.
I have switched from Outlook to Thunderbird some years ago. I find it much better. The e-mail part works well with the new Telus Google mail system. Thunderbird just mirrors what is on Google Mail, while keeping a local copy of the mail. If you don't want particular e-mail in the Google cloud, you just move it to a local folder. In the conversion I just opened a new account in Thunderbird with the new Google mail system, and kept the old Thunderbird mail in another account.
