If you're a Shaw Webmail user setting up a new email app, this page will teach you how to export your email contact lists, calendar, or account from Shaw Webmail. If you're a new Shaw Webmail user, you'll learn how to import those same things.
Importing contacts, calendars, and accounts
Before you can import contacts, calendars, or accounts into Shaw Webmail, you'll need to export those files from your current email app (eg. Windows Live, Outlook, Mac Mail). Please consult the support documentation included with that app for assistance.
When you're ready to import files:
- Go to https://webmail.shaw.ca
- Log in to Webmail with your username and password.
- Click Preferences in the toolbar at the top of your Inbox.
- Select Import/Export from the menu on the left side of the screen.
- Under Import, click Browse and locate the file you want to upload.
- Choose your destination folder or data type.
- Click Import.
If the import worked, you should see a pop-up window that says “Import Succeeded”.
