To manually convert Outlook PST file to MBOX file, you must first set up your Outlook account with Gmail through IMAP. Next, you can migrate the contents of your PST mailbox to the Gmail account. After synchronization, you can set up the Gmail account in another email client such as Apple Mail or Thunderbird and access the emails in MBOX format.

Disadvantages to this manual method include: It can be very time-consuming, requires technical expertise to set up, and it also requires a consistent Internet connection. A large PST mailbox may cause errors, missing attachments, or incomplete migration.

The MacSonik PST Converter Tool is an efficient way to migrate your mailbox data from PST to MBOX without any hassle. It can convert PST files to multiple formats and is compatible with numerous email applications. It also provides bulk import for large PST mailboxes with options to set filters and duplicates. One of its many features is a preview option that allows the user to verify content before migrating. All of this allows the process to be quick, seamless, and accurate.

Below are the instructions for converting PST file to MBOX file format:
1. Download and open the MacSonik PST Converter Tool and Go with the Single File > Next
2. Select Files to choose and open your PST File, then click Next.
3. Select the folders/emails you want to convert, and then click next.
4. Choose iCloud as your destination and sign in.
5. Click Convert to begin transferring PST Files to MBOX.
