How to Convert PST to EML Files?

You can convert PST to EML files using either manual methods or professional tools:

Manual Method Using Microsoft Outlook:

  1. Open the PST file in Outlook.
  2. Select the email you want to convert.
  3. Drag and drop the selected email to a folder on your computer; it will be saved as an EML file.
  4. Repeat this process for each email you want to convert.
    • Limitations: This method is tedious and impractical for bulk conversion.

Using a Professional PST to EML Converter Tool:

  1. Install and launch a reliable tool like Advik PST to EML Converter.
  2. Add the PST file to the tool.
  3. Choose EML as the output format and specify the destination folder.
  4. Start the conversion process for quick and accurate results.

For bulk conversion and to save time, using a professional tool is the recommended solution.
