What is a MSG file?
MSG is the file format Microsoft Outlook uses to save a single email, contact, or calendar item. It stores the header (sender, recipient, subject, timestamp), the message body, and any original attachments in one file — which is why it can typically only be opened natively in Outlook.

What is a PST file?
PST is Outlook's Personal Storage Table — a single database file holding entire folders of mail, contacts, calendars and their indexes. Because it is a structured, checksum-protected container rather than a single message, a browser cannot write a valid PST without risking a mailbox that Outlook refuses to mount. The dependable path is to convert each .msg to EML here, then import the folder into Outlook (or into a fresh Outlook data file) and let Outlook build the PST itself.
// Frequently asked
Questions people ask before converting
PST is a checksum-protected database with internal indexes covering whole folder trees. Generating one client-side would produce files Outlook may refuse to mount, so we don't pretend to support it.
Convert your messages to EML with the converter above, then drag them into an Outlook folder, or use File → Open & Export → Import/Export and let Outlook write the PST.
Yes, EML retains sender, recipients, timestamps and attachments, and Outlook re-indexes them when the message lands in a folder.
It is on the roadmap as a server-side job, because it needs a real mailbox writer. Until it is trustworthy, the EML route stays the recommendation.
