Finally!

Wow! This app works very well!

It’s a shame that Mail can’t import Outlook for Windows’ PST files directly. I have ALL my old emails, for the past 15 years or so, in a HUGE PST file. But I had been on Windows for most of that time. When I switched to the Mac, there didn’t seem to be a safe and easy way to import them into Mail. So I had to get Outlook for Mac. I hate it, but I need all my old emails. I’ve searched for conversion options in the past, but the Internet is a dangerous place: I couldn’t tell what would work and whether it could be trusted. And since I couldn’t find any trustworthy reviews, I just stuck to Outlook for Mac for old emails and used Mail for new emails.

Recently, I decided to check the Mac App Store — and, lo and behold, this app was available. The reviews were mostly good, so I decided to give it a try. And it worked! Very well, in fact! It converted my 13.5 GB PST file without a problem. (Well, as far as I can see anyway. I haven’t checked all of the emails, but it seems to have worked quite well.) It was relatively quick, too: much faster than I remember Outlook for Mac being when it was importing the same file.

I highly recommend this app! I paid $25. While that seemed like a lot when I wasn’t sure it would work, it was TOTALLY worth the price to bring all my old emails into Mail.
