Default Setting up .pst Files

Using the following method to set up a previous pst file on a new computer
(transferred across):

If you use a POP3 account, or you set up your Exchange account to deliver to
a local Personal Folders file (.pst), you need to set up Outlook to open the
file.

On the File menu, point to Open, and then click Outlook Data File.
Click the .pst file you want to open, and then click OK.

Can you import multiple .pst files using this method? Thanks.

Default Setting up .pst Files

Hi George,

Can you import multiple .pst files using this method?


you can open multiple PST files using this method.

There are different information available about the maximum numbers of PST
files that Outlook can handle without any problems. Some information talk
about 128 PST files, one of our customers handles 256 (shared) PST files but
as a short answer: Yes, you can open multiple PST files using this method.

Absolutely, but it's not an import.
