One week before departure up until the penultimate day:
- Move all work-related folders and emails in your Exchange account (username@mit.edu or username@exchange.mit.edu) to the local "On My Mac" section on the left column list in Apple Mail. All emails placed on "On My Mac" are local to the machine and will enable us to easily migrate these emails from your Mac account to the new employee's account. This means that they're no longer in your Exchange email and will reside only on the Mac. Their presence in this location makes it easy for us to grab the folders and emails and copy them to a new user account for set up in the new employee's email.
- Create a folder on your Mac's Desktop called "Files To New Employee" and put any and all files/or folders you would like your replacement to have into that folder.
- Document for the new employee all steps to any programs you use, especially to server volumes and databases.
