Can Thunderbird Import OST File?

[jackera]

No, Thunderbird cannot directly import OST files. OST (Offline Storage Table) files are created by Microsoft Outlook and are designed to work specifically with Outlook profiles and Exchange or IMAP accounts. Since Thunderbird does not support the OST file format, you cannot open or import OST files directly into it. To access OST file data in Thunderbird, use a third-party tool like Advik OST Converter. With this tool, Thunderbird import OST file (https://www.adviksoft.com/blog/import-ost-to-thunderbird/) in a few simple clicks.

1. Run the tool on your system.
2. Add .ost file into software.
3. Choose mailbox folders.
4. Select Thunderbird as a saving option.
5. Click Convert button to begin the process.
