The Mailbox stores the users email, calendar and contacts and each Mailbox has a maximum size which is set by the Server Administrators.However, without a system like this, when a users Mailbox becomes full, they have to delete mails in order to continue to receive and send.
![]() This presents a problem for those people who like to keep all emails (and for those who work in certain regulated industries where you are forced to keep all emails). A PST file is accessed via Outlook but is not part of a users Mailbox. It usually lives on a users local drive and can store email, calendar appointments and contacts. PST files give users extra storage so when they fill up their Mailbox, they create a PST from within Outlook, or open an existing PST file and drag and drop emails from their Mailbox to the PST. I had implemented a system of creating one PST per month in order to ensure that the size of the PSTs remained reasonable. Although Microsoft allow a PST to be up to 2GB in size, its recommended that the size of a PST remains under 500MB to reduce the risk of corruption. At the start of each month Id create a new PST file and that is where the mail would be stored. The files produced by O2M were imported into Apple Mail and the PSTs were then left on an archive drive, unlikely to be needed again. I know that I could convert these to PDFs but thats one of those things you never quite get round to doing. ![]() To view the contents of a PST, run PST Bridge, select File Open and choose the PST file. There is a Folders Panel on the left hand side which displays all the folders from the PST including Calendar, Contacts, Notes and Tasks as well as all the folders that contain emails. When you click on a folder, the contents are displayed in a list in the main part of the app. You can print an email and even reply to and forward emails from within PST Bridge. Simply click the appropriate button on the toolbar and it fires up Apple Mail. Emails are exported to.mbox files which can then be imported into Apple Mail, PostBox or any other mail client. Contacts are exported as.vcard files which can be imported into Address Book and appointments are imported directly into iCal. The free version will only allow you to view and export the first 10 items per folder. Open Pst File In Outlook Full Version Of TheThe full version of the Viewer costs 13.49 whilst the full version of the Exporter costs 7.99. A totally-unlocked version is also available from the Developers site for 19.90. The app, which costs 0.69 (introductory price) is available from the Mac App Store. With this tool at hand, migrating all your mails from a Windows system to a Mac machine becomes hassle free.
