Can I Convert Large OLM File to PST Without Damaging Mailbox Data?985

I have a large OLM file that contains many emails and attachments. I want to convert it into PST so it can be used in MS Outlook on Windows. My main concern is keeping the folder structure, email formatting, attachments, and sender-receiver details safe. Which method works best for this type of OLM to PST conversion?

Yes, a large OLM file can be converted to PST without damaging mailbox data, but the method matters. Manual approaches are usually not suitable for large OLM files because they can be time-consuming and may not preserve the complete mailbox structure.

I had a similar situation with a large Outlook for Mac archive and used Softaken OLM to PST Converter. It is designed to handle large OLM files and export emails, contacts, calendars, notes, tasks, and attachments into PST format. The good thing is that it keeps the original folder hierarchy and mailbox information during conversion. It also provides a preview before export so you can verify the data first. The software works independently and does not require Outlook installation for the conversion process.

My suggestion is to first test the trial version on a copy of the OLM file and keep the original file backed up. That way you can verify the output before converting the entire mailbox.
