When your PST file is corrupted, Thunderbird won't import it directly, even if you perform some manual actions. Thunderbird has no built-in PST file support, making things more complex if the file is corrupted.

However, even with a corrupted PST file, you are still able to access and transfer your emails into Thunderbird using a specialized tool- Mailvita PST to MBOX Converter.

Here are the benefits with this option -

The tool scans the PST file and repairs the corrupt content to allow conversion even if it is partially corrupt.

The PST files will be converted directly to MBOX format, which Thunderbird fully supports.

You do not need to access or repair the PST file using Outlook, or even have Outlook installed.

During conversion, the emails, attachments, folders, or formatting will not be lost.

When ready, you can easily import the MBOX file into Thunderbird with no data loss.

Although Thunderbird cannot import a corrupted PST file directly, repairing and converting it properly with Mailvita PST to MBOX Converter will allow you to retrieve your emails safely in Thunderbird. The steps of the Outlook into MBOX Converter Tool are -

1. Install & Run Outlook Mail to Thunderbird Conversion Tool on your Mac, and Windows system.
2. using the Browse button, add your Outlook PST file.
3. Select either the single or multiple PST files option.
4. Preview the PST Files.
5. Set the location for the converted MBOX files.
6. Click on the Convert Now button.
