How can I convert the OST file to PST . I have move exchange 2010 from exchange to POP3. I did the backup OST format and now I cannot find the old send items. I am trying to import the OST to PST.
Is there any way I can do that with converting to PST?
Thanks in advance!
OST is not really a backup. It is a local copy of the Exchange server data to minimize bandwidth. The proper procedure if you are leaving an Exchange site is to create a PST locally and copy all of the OST folders to it. You can only do this if the Exchange account still exists because Outlook requires connection to the Exchange account to copy to a PST.
So... if you still have your Exchange account available, you can do the above. If you do not have an Exchange account any more than you will have to purchase a paid product... I support 40 Office 365 workstations and have never found a free solution that worked.
