I bought the full access license after the free version proved to work very good for me. I considered the free version as a way to test only, with its limited access I was able to see enough pst files properly processed to assess this is what I needed. After going for full functionality, the app had no issues on working on various pst files I had, on which various of them were quite old (dated from 2008 for example), not that this matters but I had some doubts at the time as they come from different versions of Outlook. It took some time (reasonable and fair) to read off the files and create links and views, I'm taking files about 2-3 GB in size that include a full year of information. Once done, I had the views of all my Outlook emails as well as to access attachments. Next step was to import all to the mail app format, but that I haven't done yet as the view step allowed me to see the info, the attachments, print, download attachments, etc. Once you run the application, it creates its own links to the working files so next tie you run it, you can access them right away, otherwise, if you close the links, they will have to be re-created. PST Bridge worked excellent for my case.

This app is fantastic. I read the reviews, and there are basically two types: 1. The people who bought the app, are using it and are extremely pleased with its simplicity and usefulness. They rate the app 5 stars. 2. A bunch of whiners who want everything for free. They rate the app 1-2 stars. The free app clearly states that there are in-app purchases. Fortunately, the developer does allow us to download and use the app for a limited number of pst files to determine whether it will work for the user. IMHO, that is absolutely fair enough. App developers should not be expected to be Mother Theresa. They need to make a living too. I suggest that all the complainers go to their bosses tomorrow and offer to work for free for a few weeks, and see how that works out.

Only English email is properly converted. Other countries languages don't convert correctly. Most of emails are broken and can't be read. Is there any way to convert other languages email(PST) correctly? PST Bridge have to upgrade this broken email.

You get to read 10 emails free. After that you have to pay about $20 to view more and $30 to unlock all fetaures.

This allows you to see a list of your messages, but if you actually want to open them you have to pay. You can’t use the free app.

My company uses exchange and limits our quota size. I’ve alway liked PST files for their simplicity. Combined them with PST Bridge and I have a great solution for dealing with work archives from prievious years. I use apple mail for the current year, which is configured an exchange client. At the beginning of each fiscal year I export the privious year to a PST from my windows VM. PST Bridge allows me to access those PST archives without needing to launch the windows VM every time. Perfect for my needs.

Like other reviewers, I have a bunch on M$ Exchange .PSTs in my backups that I could no longer access or search through. I found PST Bridge to be a solid mac app to import these multi GB psts and be able to export them into a format (MBox) that Apple’s Mail app can import & use. The $12 export wizard does this well. I can’t speak to the other in app option. Here's how I solved my particular issue of getting from these huge .PSTs to individual .PDFs: 1) In PST Bridge, find target pst, drag into pst bridge. It imports & indexes the pst. 2)In PST Bridge, Click export wizard, export to a specific folder. This creates a series of MBox elders roughly corresponding to the exchange pst structure. 3) In Apple’s Mail app, Import that specific folder into mail File/Import Mailbox/Select Import Files in Mbox format. This creates an “On My Mac” folder, again, roughly corresponding to the exchange pst structure. 4) Open Email Archiver Pro (a separate fantastic app), tweak the settings to export into the final target e-mail folder, and start. This will take awhile, but it creates .pdfs of every e-mail, with a name of “YYYY-MMM-DD HH.MM.SSZ Subject line of message” and puts any attachments in folders with that name. These are sorted into year/month subdirectories like 2016/05/2016-05-19-12.47.01Z Here’s that cat photo.pdf The Email Archiver Pro app also creates an “Email Archiver File List.txt” file of all e-mails. PS: Another mac app “MailRadar Pro” is good at opening .MSG files and converting them to other formats (.rtf, export to .pdf)

This works as advertised and you don’t need to be a computuer pro to use it.

What is so great about PST Bridge? It opens PST files, and it opens them FAST! You can also quickly search though them. It would be nice if I could open multiple PST files (for example, 10) and then do a search across all ten of them.

This app really handles the job as advertised. It simply works and with no flaws.
