How to Extract Email Addresses from a PST File

There are two main ways to extract email addresses from a PST file, which is a data file used by Microsoft Outlook to store emails, contacts, and other data.

Using Microsoft Outlook (if you have it installed)

This method leverages Outlook's export functionality to convert your contacts (which likely contain the email addresses you need) into a CSV file. Here's how:

1. Launch Microsoft Outlook.
2. Go to the File menu and select Open & Export.
3. Choose Import/Export.
4. Select Export to a file, and then click Next.
5. Choose Comma Separated Values (CSV) as the export format, and click Next.
6. Under Select folder to export from, choose Contacts from your PST file.
7. Click Browse to specify where you want to save the CSV file containing the extracted email addresses.
8. In the Options section, click Map custom fields. You can choose which specific contact information (like email address) gets exported into the CSV file. Click OK when finished.
9. Review the summary and click Finish to begin the export process.

Note: This method extracts email addresses from your Outlook contacts. If the email addresses you need are not in your contacts, this method won't be helpful.

Using Third-Party PST Extractor Tools (if you don't have Outlook)

Several third-party software programs specialize in extracting data from PST files. These tools often offer more advanced features than the manual Outlook method, such as:

• Extracting email addresses from all emails within the PST file, not just contacts.
• Filtering emails based on specific criteria before extracting addresses.
• Exporting email addresses to various formats besides CSV.

Here's a general process for using a third-party PST extractor:

1. Download and install a reputable PST extractor tool. There are many options available, so be sure to research and choose one with the features you need.
2. Launch the PST extractor software.
3. Locate and add your PST file to the program.
4. Choose the extraction options. Specify which data you want to extract (email addresses in this case) and the desired output format.
5. Select the destination folder to save the extracted email addresses.
6. Run the extraction process.

Important Note: Before using any third-party software, ensure it comes from a reputable source and has positive reviews to avoid downloading malware.

By following these methods, you can effectively extract email addresses from your PST file and organize them for further use.
