Sorry, but you can’t. Â At least not with a Microsoft Product… Unless your running Windows via a Virtual Machine, or Boot camp, there is no Microsoft Products on the Mac that will product a PST.
PST’s are a product of Outlook, or the Exchange server. Â The file format is actually used for quite a few files…:
- Personal Storage Table [File] (.PST)
- Personal Folder File (.PFF)
- Off-Line Storage Table (.ost)
- Off-Line Folder File (.off)
- Personal Address Book (.pab)
The file format has been reversed engineered, and through the libpst project, it can be read on other platforms than Windows…
As a general rule, PST files are not highly recommended, as they are easily corrupted, and damaged. Â This corruption is more likely, when the file gets closer to the maximum file size.
Outlook 2002, and earlier had a maximum file size of 2 GB. Â Outlook 2003, extended this filesize up to 20 Gb.
Microsoft has a PST Import Tool for Entourage. Â This tool has to be one of the best kept secrets of Microsoft, since I rarely hear about a software package that has been in existance since 11/30/2005.
- Office XP (aka Office 2002) PSTs can not be used with the MS PST Import Tool.
- Although the documentation makes specific reference to Entourage 2004, the PST Import Tool can be used with versions of Entourage released after Entourage 2004, such as Entourage 2008.
- Please note, I have seen very mixed results with this import tool.
A commercial package called “Outlook -> Entourage”, claims to transfer your email, address book, contacts, and calendars for $14.95. I haven’t tried it, but I have seen some comments about it… They’ve been generally positive.
