I have an OST file from Microsoft Outlook and want to access my old emails in Apple Mail on my Mac. However, Apple Mail does not directly support importing OST files, so I am looking for a reliable way to transfer my mailbox data.

One possible approach is to convert the OST file into a compatible format, such as MBOX or EML, and then import the converted emails into Apple Mail. You can consider BLR OST to PST Converter for OST conversion, but check its supported output formats before choosing it for this specific migration.
