I just came on to the Microsoft hosting for my work emails. I have my emails from the previous hosting as a pst file. The new outlook is not showing me an option to import these into my account

Thanks for your response. Much appreciated.

2025-02-21T16:39:17+00:00 Doesn't seem to support mailboxes hosted on Exchange cloud hosting (work email account)
That "this article" link takes me here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/open-and-find-items-in-an-outlook-data-file-pst-2e2b55a4-f681-4b93-90cb-31d39349fb95
My subscription is Exchange Plan 1. I suppose that is not supported yet.

2025-02-21T16:19:27+00:00 There does not appear to be anything that corresponds to a "Toggle Switch". There does not appear to be any way to import the PST file. And, by the way, I was online with Microsoft support chat while Microsoft 365 was downloading, and Chat assured me that it could be done. Good thing I installed Thunderbird before I did Microsoft 365. Thunderbird was easy to set up.
