To change Zimbra TGZ files to PST format, follow these simple steps:

Method 1: Manual Conversion (Using Zimbra & Outlook)

  1. Export TGZ File from Zimbra

    • Open Zimbra Desktop or Zimbra Web Client.
    • Go to Preferences > Import/Export and select Export.
    • Choose the mailbox data you want to export and save the TGZ file.
  2. Extract TGZ File

    • Use any extraction tool (WinRAR, 7-Zip) to unzip the TGZ file and get email files.
  3. Manually Move Emails to Outlook

    • Convert extracted emails to EML format and import them into Outlook.
    • This method is time-consuming and does not support batch conversion.

Method 2: Automated Conversion Using Regain Zimbra to PST Converter

For a faster and error-free solution, use the Regain Zimbra to PST Converter Tool:

  1. Install and open the Regain Zimbra Mail to PST Converter.
  2. Click Add File and select the TGZ file.
  3. Preview mailbox items and choose PST as the output format.
  4. Apply filters (date, selective folders) if needed.
  5. Click Convert, and the tool will generate a PST file compatible with Outlook.

This method ensures data integrity, supports bulk conversion, and provides additional export options like EML, MBOX, PDF, and Office 365 migration. Try the free demo to migrate up to 30 items per folder.
