It’s easy to access Outlook mail objects such as emails, tasks, journals, attachments, appointments, and messages without an Internet connection. General credit goes to the OST files. These files allow you to use mail objects without an Internet connection. Using the OST file is the same as using the MS-Office file. Whenever you connect to the Exchange server, all the data in the OST file is automatically converted to PST. But sometimes, it happens that you can’t use mail objects because you can’t sync OST files with exchange server. Therefore, it is necessary to convert OST files to PST. For the conversion, use a third-party OST to PST conversion tool.
