Outlook

Post by corpse »

Is there a way to import .pst files into Outlook?

I know someone who has 2 different folders with .pst files and copy/paste only works with 1 obviously. He had to reinstall and saved these 2 .pst folders. Now he cant get them back, only 1.

On the file, import ....it only shows to import from other email programs as far as I can see.

Don't do an Import, just use File->Open->Outlook Data File.

this would be the easiest way.
If you do this, depending on your configuration it will create two mailbox trees in the folder list, one which recieves new mail and manages other things like calendar events, etc. and one which kind of just sits there holding old stuff. If you want all your eggs in one basket, if you will, do an import ala' fraga's suggestion.

Yea I always forget you can do it that way too.

I prefer to just Open it, then I can copy what I want from folder to folder and leave the stuff I don't need behind. But I'm just anal about having control over all those operations myself.
