[Anshu_123]

Importing MSG files into Office 365 can be challenging since there’s no direct native option. MSG files are individual email messages created by Microsoft Outlook, and users often need to move them to a cloud platform like Office 365 for better accessibility and management.

TL;DR

• No direct native way to import MSG to Office 365
• Manual method: Drag & drop via Outlook (limited use)
• Best solution: Use Cigati MSG Converter
• Saves time, supports bulk import, and maintains data integrity

Manual Method to Import MSG to Office 365​

You can try a basic manual approach using Microsoft Outlook:

1. Open Microsoft Outlook on your system.
2. Log in with your Office 365 account.
3. Drag and drop MSG files into an Outlook folder (like Inbox or a custom folder).
4. Outlook will sync the data automatically with Office 365.

Limitations:

• Time-consuming for bulk files
• Risk of data loss or corruption
• No advanced filtering options
• Requires Outlook installation
