  1. At the top of your Outlook ribbon, choose File.

    If your ribbon doesn't have a File option in the top left corner.

  4. Click Outlook Data File (.pst), and then click Next.

  5. Select the name of the email account to export, as shown in the picture below. Only information for one account can be exported information at a time.

    Make sure that the Include subfolders check box is selected. This way everything in the account will be exported: Calendar, Contacts, and Inbox. Choose Next.

  6. Click Browse to select where to save the Outlook Data File (.pst). Type a file name, and then click OK to continue.

    Note: If you’ve used export before, the previous folder location and file name appear. Type a different file namebefore clicking OK.

  7. If you are exporting to an existing Outlook Data File (.pst), under Options, specify what to do when exporting items that already exist in the file.

  8. Click Finish.

  9. Outlook begins the export immediately unless a new Outlook Data File (.pst) is created or a password-protected file is used.
    • If you’re creating an Outlook Data File (.pst), an optional password can help protect the file. When the Create Outlook Data File dialog box appears, type the password in the Passwordand Verify Password boxes, and then click OK. In the Outlook Data File Password dialog box, type the password, and then click OK.

    • If you’re exporting to an existing Outlook Data File (.pst) that is password protected, in the Outlook Data File Password dialog box, type the password, and then click OK.

Now that your Outlook data is in a .pst file, it's portable. For example, you can save the .pst file to OneDrive, and then download it to your new computer. Or you can save it to a usb flash drive, plug the drive into your new computer, and then import your email, contacts, and calendar to Outlook.
Also you can convert to PST by using the conversion software.

What application are you currently using for your email? To my knowledge only Microsoft Outlook exports email to a PST file, so you would need your email to be accessible from that application. If you currently use some other application, then as long as your email is still also stored on the server as well, you can always set up your email account on Outlook and then export as a PST. If your email is all downloaded onto your local system, then depending on what application you’re currently using, it may be easiest to simply upload them to a mail server using IMAP within that application and then access your IMAP account via Outlook to export a PST file.
