Product Review: Stellar Merge Mailbox for Outlook

Stellar Merge Mailbox for Outlook is a specialized software that can merge multiple PST files into a single file. You can use the software to merge password-protected PST files. You can merge multiple PST files into a new PST or add the merged PST to an existing PST. You can even save the PST to a live Exchange, Office 365, or Outlook account. Further, the software gives you several options to filter the contents of the PST files and remove deleted/junk items before saving the file.

When to Use Stellar Merge Mailbox?

The merge PST software can be used in many situations, such as:

• Outlook upgrade: Older Outlook versions had a low PST size limit (Outlook 2007 had a size limit of 20 GB, for instance). However, newer versions (Outlook 2010 and above) have a higher PST size limit of 50 GB. So, if you have upgraded to a newer Outlook version, you can combine your old small-sized PSTs and export the merged PST to your new Outlook.
• Mailbox data archiving: If you have lots of mailbox data from different Outlook accounts, you can combine PST files of these accounts. This merged PST file can be used for archiving and backup purposes.
• Combining personal and business Outlook profiles: If you have multiple Outlook profiles for business, social, and personal emails, you can use the software to combine the PSTs of these profiles. The consolidated PST will help you manage the data from a single account.
