From my experience, importing MBOX files to a Hotmail account (now Outlook.com) cannot be done directly because Hotmail does not support the MBOX format. However, there is an easy and reliable method to complete the migration.
The most common approach is to use a MBOX Converter. First, you need to convert your MBOX file into a format that Hotmail supports, or directly migrate it using a tool. You add the MBOX file into the software, preview the emails, and enter your Hotmail login details. After that, the tool uploads all emails directly into your Hotmail account in a structured way.
Alternatively, you can use an email client like Microsoft Outlook by adding your Hotmail account via IMAP and then importing MBOX data into Outlook before syncing it to the server. But this method can be time-consuming.
From my experience, using a professional tool like BLR Tools makes the process much faster, safer, and completely hassle-free.
