[Solved] Reading .pst files

Post by charleskirke »

I am temporarily without my computer with an MSOffice suite on it. I have backed up my files and am delighted that OpenOffice allows me to use all of them... except my .pst files. Can it be done, and if so how?

A quick search indicates that .pst files are used by Microsoft Outlook, the e-mail client associated with Microsoft Office.
Neither Apache Open Office nor Libre Office has an e-mail client included.
You will have to try other programs for the .pst files. An e-mail client that I have seen recommended on this board is Thunderbird
OpenOffice 4.1.7, LibreOffice 7.0.1.2 on Windows 7 Pro, Ultimate & Windows 10 Home (2004)

As such there are some random ways which help you out in the reading of a PST file. As the reading goes of PST one can also perform using the manual method. If you are a technical person you can check out on google. Or else there are various professional methods which you can use directly.

It allows to read all type of email properties like To, Cc, Bcc Subject etc. You can read and view contact from free PST files easily. This PST reader can work for all windows operating systems.
