Being an Outlook user, you must know about Personal Storage Table (PST). It is an Outlook data file to store the mailbox data, such as email messages, calendars, contacts, tasks, notes, journals, attachments, etc. You are required to configure at least one email account (no maximum limit) to use Microsoft Outlook email client.
Each email account which is configured with Outlook has its own PST file. For example: if you have configured five different email accounts with your Outlook email client application, five different PST files will be created and stored on your system. Those PST files are attached to your Outlook profile by default.
But if you have copied the files from other system or any external device, or received from any other Outlook user, you need to add the files to your Outlook profile to access them. Without attaching the files to Outlook, you can’t use or access them in your Outlook email client. In such a critical situation, there are two things which can certainly help you:
