Hi Experts,<br />
<br />
What's the best practice of moving an on-premises, non-mail enabled public folder contacts and calendars to O365?<br />
This will be a hybrid migration and we'd like to decommission the PFs as a part of the project. We're aware that they'd be accessible for online users during the hybrid, but that's not an option here.<br />
<br />
Is shared mailbox for each PF a way to go or?<br />
What's the easiest way to migrate?<br />
<br />
Thank you

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.

Golang, also called Go, is an open source programming language that is a statically-typed language with syntax loosely derived from C, adding automatic memory management, type safety, some dynamic-typing capabilities, additional built-in types such as variable-length arrays and key-value maps, and a large standard library. Go is a general-purpose systems programming language that aims to be efficient both for development and execution with a focus on fast compilation and increased maintainability of large projects. Go was originally targeted at systems programming tasks such as building server/web applications, high throughput middleware and databases.
