Hi @Linda Reese ,

Welcome to our forum!

Agree with Syed Shiraz Shahid, you can try to open/import Outlook items from a .pst file in Outlook 365.

In addition, when you configure your account as POP account in Outlook 365, you can also select the .pst file to use the existing Outlook Data File. More information:
