Do all versions of 365 support importing PST files from Outlook desktop?

I wish to migrate email from Outlook / Office Pro 2013 to Office 365.  I am hopeful the version I select can support both an Outlook email address as well as non-microsoft email such as gmail.

 

I have one Outlook email address and two additional non-Outlook addresses which I wish to be able to access and send email from using Office 365.

 

Regarding the Outlook email account, I wish to export the PST file from the desktop version and import the Office 365.  I am not certain all versions of Office 365 offer that capability and I am hopeful someone(s) will share their wisdom to this neophyte.

 

Is this outcome achievable?

  • Depends on what you understand by "office 365". If you mean the desktop versions of the Office apps (Office 365 Pro Plus), yes, every versions supports PST import. If you mean the software as a service apps, then it depends on the type of license you have. Every license that includes an Exchange Online plan 1/plan 2 will do.

      VasilMichev my goal is to move my email from my desktop to the cloud.  I installed a trial of the Personal version of Office 365 but did not find a path that would enable me to upload a PST file.

        Why don't you upload the PST files via Office365 portal?

         

        1. Go to https://protection.office.com/ and sign in using the credentials for an administrator account in your Office 365 organization.

        2. In the left pane of the Security & Compliance Center, click Data governance > Import.

        3. On the Import page, click  + New import job.
