No, you cannot directly import PST files into Yahoo Mail because it does not support the PST format. PST is an Outlook data file, while Yahoo Mail works on a web-based IMAP system, so there is no built-in option to upload PST files directly.
To use PST data in Yahoo Mail, you need an alternative approach. One option is to configure your Yahoo Mail account in Microsoft Outlook using IMAP, then move the emails from the PST file into your Yahoo folders. However, this method can be time-consuming and requires proper setup.
A more efficient solution is to use a professional tool like BLR Tools, which allows you to convert or migrate PST files directly to Yahoo Mail while preserving emails, attachments, metadata, and folder structure.
So, while direct import is not possible, using the right method makes the migration smooth and hassle-free.
