Email Data Migration via eMXport
2024
When De Beers set out to consolidate their email archive and take advantage of Mimecast’s advanced security and archiving features, they faced a significant challenge: over 55 million emails and 6TB of data were still locked away in Proofpoint.
Continuing to run dual platforms was both costly and complex. To unlock Mimecast’s full value, they needed a partner who could deliver a seamless, compliant migration—without any disruption to their operations.

De Beers wanted to simplify their email environment and gain the benefit of Mimecast’s features. However, their legacy email data remained on Proofpoint, tying them to dual platform costs and cumbersome management. The challenge: migrate 55.4 million emails—totalling 6TB—securely and efficiently, all while maintaining full compliance and minimising risk of data loss or operational impact.
De Beers chose The Possibility Partnership for our fully managed migration service, powered by our in-house tool, eMXport. As a cloud-native platform, eMXport requires no customer-side hardware or compute—removing complexity, risk, and additional cost from the process. The De Beers team handed us the brief, and our experts managed the migration end-to-end, with security, traceability, and compliance at the forefront throughout every stage.
“At The Possibility Partnership, we believe that technology should make life easier—not add complexity. For De Beers, our job was to handle the heavy lifting behind the scenes, so their team could focus on what matters most. Seamless migrations, zero stress, and total peace of mind—that’s what partnering with us is all about.”
