Google MBOX file into Outlook

Google lets you download the data from its services such as calendar, Gmail, Blogger, etc. into a archived local file that you can keep as a backup. The emails from Gmail are stored in MBOX file along with the original folder structure, available to download in a compressed file.

The chances are that you already have downloaded that file and now you are looking for ways to open it with or import it in Outlook.

Get the Google Takeout Data

If you haven’t, you can open the link “takeout.google.com” .

  1. choose Gmail from list of Google services (it is listed as ‘Mail’),
  2. choose the Gmail ‘labels’ and folders you wish to download/archive,
  3. click ‘Next,’ choose the delivery method (download link via email or automatically add to services like Dropbox, OneDrive, etc.),
  4. choose “Once” to archive all selected only once (You can set it to export automatically after specific regular intervals)
  5. Choose the compressed file format you want (either .zip or .tgz)
  6. Choose the maximum size for the archived file after which Google will split them (maximum size allowed is 50GB)
  7. Click “Create Export” and wait for Google to archived your selected data into a downloadable MBOX file

Now that we have the MBOX file from Google file, let’s move on to the main and important question we are concerned with.

MBOX (*.mbox file) & PST (*.pst file)

MBOX is a pretty standard file for storing email information and you can use it with many software and clients, except Outlook Mac and Windows. Unfortunately, Microsoft uses the proprietary and open-source format called PST for data import for Windows Outlook natively, but PST can also work with Mac Outlook. This creates a situation complicated enough for many users that they become clueless.

Since, it is technically not possible to open or import Google MBOX file into Outlook (or MBOX file from any source), the only way forward is to convert it to PST using third-party tools,
