What is MHTML File Format?
The MHTML (MIME HTML) file format is a standard for archiving and saving web pages or email messages as a single file. It combines HTML content and resources such as images, stylesheets, and scripts into a self-contained document, making it easier to share and preserve the original layout and appearance of the content. MHTML files are often used for offline viewing, archiving, or sharing web pages or emails with all their components intact.
What is PST File Format?
PST (Personal Storage Table) is a file format used by Microsoft Outlook to store email messages, contacts, calendars, tasks, and other mailbox items. PST files function as a data storage container that allows users to access and manage their email data within Outlook. These files can be created and saved locally on a user’s computer or stored on a network server. PST files are commonly used for backing up email data, archiving old messages, and migrating email data between different computers or email clients. Additionally, PST files can be password-protected to enhance data security and privacy.
