Recover OST data

[Tom]

Hello,
A few days ago the hard drive of our Exchange Server crashed. We had about
35 email accounts configured and it was heavily used. Most everything has
been recovered except 2 mail accounts. I've got the OST copies of their
data. How can I make that usable to Outlook? I see online there are
conversion tools, but does Microsoft offer a solution?
Thanks for your time.
Tom

A long as you haven't changed anything to the configuration of the client,
you can simply start Outlook and it will start in Offline Mode and loads the
ost-file. You can then copy the data you want to a pst-file which you can
later import again into the Exchange mailbox via Outlook.

If that doesn't work, you'd indeed need a 3rd party recovery tool such as;
