Either manually or with the use of an adapted tool like the BLR MBOX Converter application, users can import an MBOX file into Office 365.
By Hands-On:
- To begin with, users must convert MBOX file into a PST file. Email clients such as Thunderbird or Apple Mail can be used for this.
- PST upload to Office 365: The PST file should then be uploaded to Azure Storage using the Azure AzCopy tool.
- Using Office 365, import PST: The PST file can then be imported into a user's mailbox using the Office 365 Import service.
Challenges: The manual method requires a lot of effort and difficulty. The conversion and import steps demand for some technical know-how. Also, there is a chance that data will be lost or damaged, and handling big files or several accounts can be quite difficult.

It is easy to use, secures your data, and doesn't need you to be a tech expert. It also saves users a ton of time and work by handling many files at once. This tool offers an easy and hassle-free Office 365 conversion.
