Keeping the original folder structure is important when moving Outlook emails to an IMAP account. It helps users find messages in familiar folders after migration. Before starting, check that the destination IMAP account is configured correctly and has enough space for the mailbox data. The Aryson PST Converter Tool can import PST data into IMAP and maintain the original folder hierarchy. Users can add one or multiple PST files, preview mailbox folders, and select the data they want to transfer. When you import PST files to IMAP, the tool also provides date-range filtering and duplicate email removal. These options help users narrow the data being transferred and avoid migrating repeated messages. Review the selected folders and settings before starting the process.
