1. Export emails from Outlook 2013 or 2016
2. Export emails from Outlook 2010

Outlook is the email platform developed by Microsoft which offers us comprehensive solutions for messaging , contacts, meetings and much more..

 

One of the best options that as Outlook users, in this case 2016, is to export our emails to csv or pst formats for reasons such as:

  • Have a backup copy in case of errors or failures.
  • Have access to emails at any time.
  • Import that pst file to another machine and more.

 

Regardless of the situation, backing up emails will always be a good idea. Even if we use a web service like Outlook.com or Gmail, it doesn't hurt to use a desktop client like Outlook to download all email. so that we have it stored locally.

 

 


1. Export emails from Outlook 2013 or 2016

 

Step 1

To export our emails from Outlook 2013 or 2016, we will go to the "File" menu and there we select the "Open and export" option:

Step 4

In this wizard we will select the line "Export to a file" and click on "Next".

 

In the next window, we must choose the file type: either a CSV file (comma separated values) or an Outlook data file (PST). We can select PST or CSV depending on our preferences..

Step 5

By clicking on "Next" it will be necessary to select what type of elements are going to be imported.

 

If we want to receive all emails, we will normally select "Inbox" and make sure that the "Include subfolders" option is selected. If we only want a small subset of emails, we can click the Filter button and then add various criteria to reduce the number of emails to be exported.

Step 7

Click on the "Finish" button and a window will be displayed asking us if we want to protect the PST file with an optional password. If we are going to use a password, we must bear in mind that it must have more than 16 characters.

 

It's that simple to export our emails in Outlook 2013 or 2016..
