Email status after cpanel collapsed

[fuzmic]

Guys 

I notice that I can no longer log in to the email eg using https://tommy.heliohost.org:2096/

Can someone tell me some background like: is this a fact & what's to happen next.  Is there another to get in?

Email doesn't really work, and won't until the migration is done. You may want to use a different mail provider until then.

You can retrieve mail in your mailbox by looking in your ~/mail folder. There should be folders for each mailbox, with your mail being in "cur" inside them. The files with the really long random filenames are the actual emails in raw form (text with headers, etc.)

You can download those and give them a .eml extension and they'll open in mail clients like Outlook or similar as a normal (rendered) email. They may not be perfect because they aren't true .eml files though (to be exact, these files are in RFC5322 format, which is a superset of .eml).

Thank you for the lesson .. appreciate. I presume the mail folders  accessible via FTP.
