Migrating from an email application to another application needs to perform the migration of old email data as well. When the migration is done from one application to another, it is important to get details of storage files of both applications. This is because in order to transfer data from one application to another, storage file formats are extremely necessary. If they are same, or the application has an option to import or export relevant file formats then you can easily migrate data. But Outlook does not have any option to import MBOX to PST and hence one must be aware of other mediums to perform this migration.

Why Cannot We Import MBOX File to Outlook?

Multiple applications support MBOX files and data can be exported to this file format. These email clients include Thunderbird, Eudora, Bat, Netscape, Pocomail, Mac Mail, etc. All the applications save data as MBOX file or the data can be exported to this file.

This means that you will not be able to access old email application data in MS Outlook.
