A description of how to create a PST file for MS Outlook through a PST import of e-mail messages saved in the .eml format.
Where Outlook stores email and other data?
In Microsoft Outlook, all personal user data, including mail, is stored in a single Personal Storage Table file, a Personal Folders file which is created when the program is first launched. But there are sometimes situations when it is necessary to use two or more .pst files, for example with Outlook versions 97-2002, which used an old (non-Unicode) data storage format, and the problem of excessive PST size arises. It is also often necessary to create a PST file (Personlige mapper fil) when attempting to restore a PST file that has been damaged.
To create a PST file that is “clean” using Outlook’s built-in capabilities is not difficult. Imidlertid, creating a separate file that merges exported e-mail messages (transferred from another mail client or mail server web interface) can bring with it certain difficulties.
Creating new PST file from EML files
To carry out such tasks it is necessary to use special PST file utilities, such as the EML to PST tool. EML til PST Converter allows for merging mail messages saved in the .eml format into a single .pst file. In order to create a PST file, choose the corresponding option on the first page of the wizard: Opret ny PST-fil (the other choices will update PST files that already exist). After that, indicate the path to the root folder of the mail database (messages saved on disk in the .eml format) and wait for the PST import to finish. Note that unlike similar PST værktøj utilities, EML til PST Converter is unique thanks to its fast message processing algorithm, which allows it to perform the necessary conversions extremely quickly.
PST files are usually placed in the default PST folder:
on XP: C:\Documents and Settings\Bruger\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\
on Vista: C:\Users\Bruger\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook (Vista)\
Nonetheless, the generated PST file can be kept in any convenient place: on local disks, removable flash drives or DVD/CD discs. To set up a new Personal Folders file, use MS Outlook’s built-in database management features.
