Import PST file to a Gmail account can be done using both manual methods and the Shoviv Gmail Backup and Restore tool. The manual method requires Microsoft Outlook. First, import the PST file into Outlook by navigating to File > Open & Export > Import/Export, then choose Import from a PST file and load your data. After that, you must configure your Gmail account in Outlook using IMAP settings. Once added, simply drag and drop emails from the PST-loaded folders to the Gmail mailbox. While this method works, it can be slow and may fail with large PST files.
Alternatively, the Shoviv Gmail Backup and Restore tool provides a quicker and more automated solution. It allows you to directly restore PST files into your Gmail account without Outlook configuration. The tool supports bulk PST import, maintains folder hierarchy, and ensures secure, error-free data transfer. This makes the process smooth, efficient, and ideal for large or multiple PST files.
