Answer: D

Explanation:

To migrate mailboxes from Outlook.com to Office 365, you need to use the IMAP migration method.

After you’ve added your users to Office 365, you can use Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) to migrate email for those users from their IMAP-enabled email servers.

In the Microsoft 365 admin center, go to Setup > Data migration to start migrating IMAP enabled emails. The email migrations page is pre-configured for migrations from Gmail, Outlook, Hotmail and Yahoo. You can also enter your own IMAP server name and connection parameters to migrate from an email service that is not listed.
