A form will appear asking for details such as the old server hostname, old password, and new password. In the 'new password' field, you have to put the password that you entered while creating an email account in Step#2.
Here are some common mail server hostnames from other mail hosts:

cPanel => Home => Email => Email Accounts => Connect Devices
Copy the Incoming Server under Secure SSL/TLS Settings.

You will find 'Email Configuration' on the bottom right where the 'Incoming Server' is the hostname.
Enter your old server information and your new password.
Step#5:
Once the form is filled with appropriate details, please click the 'Start Migration' button which will show you a 'green tick mark' if all the details entered are correct. You will receive a WPO notification once the emails are migrated completely.
