How can I mount a data file (pst) in new outlook. In the classic version this is doable through the File menu which is not available in new outlook.

Need to create a pst file and upload a previously created pst file into outlook. This was an effortless exercise in classic outlook with readily available option in File menu. How do I get to that functionality in the new outlook.

    Support of PST data files has not occurred yet, so we are all still suffering with NEW Outlook.

    No, and given how utterly unresponsive MS has been regarding this ridiculous functionality failure, I am not holding my breath.

    No, I'm still waiting for this issue to be addressed as it is now 10 months since I first raised this issue.

    Morning Andrew,

    I agree with your statement. I have the same issue as documented. I was forced to use the NEW Outlook as Outlook 2016 would not authenticate using my email ******@Hotmail.com. Attached to my mailbox were PST files totalling around 500GB which theres PST files were located as files on my PC. Now using the NEW Outlook, I can no longer import these files as NEW Outlook does not provide this facility.

    I have been contacting MS Support since September 2024, to find out if they have a found a fix for the x2 issues I have reported.

    These changes they have made have been implemented without any alternative for the end user. I do not know if MS will make any adjustment to there product. This purely is a direction MS is taking using OFFICE 365 and OneDrive. MS do not consider users. All they are interested in is to ensure WE pay and comply.
