Looked at all these? https://support.office.com/en-us/article/how-to-migrate-mailboxes-from-one-office-365-tenant-to-another-65af7d77-3e79-44d4-9173-04fd991358b7

Yes, eDiscovery flattens a mailbox, so none of the items are in the folders (basically metatags) that they were left in by the user.

Hi there

Thanks for your reply.

Yeah have been following that link on process of migrating mailboxes. Unfortunately there are not the funds available to acquire a 3rd party product\tool.

The PST export is creating the folder structure under <email address name> \ <email address primary folder> \ <Top of information store>. Resolution appears to be is to open up PST and to drag the folders up to under <email address name> folder

Thanks

David
