Urgent Request (OST)

[medicnick83]

Hi guys,

I urgently need a tool or something that can extract e-mails from a .ost file (Outlook Exchange) to a .pst file for import.

Please!!!! I've tried to use the program Outlook Recovery Toolbox, scans, apparently exports, but doesn't export anything!

I have tried a bunch of tools a while ago with no luck... I downloaded a bunch of free crap that promised but couldn't deliver.

It was quite some time ago but if I remember correctly the following worked for me
1. back up your current .ost file (copy it to a new location or rename it)
2. Replace it with your old .ost file (I am guessing that the two ost files are for the same account?)
3. Move all the mail in your inbox to an archive folder locally on your machine.

I really hope it helps.
