Is there a way to send custom warning to all IMAP users?

2016-03-28 Thread francis picabia via Info-cyrus
We have migrated all email on a server to a cloud email platform. The users were notified by email beforehand, but hundreds are still connecting to the standard IMAP service. They may not even remember they have set up devices to connect here. Is there a way to send a custom warning through some s
