Hello,
According to your sample:

Dim ost As Email.Storage.Pst.PersonalStorage = Email.Storage.Pst.PersonalStorage.FromFile(ofd.FileName, False)
Dim writer As Email.Storage.Mbox.MboxStorageWriter = New Email.Storage.Mbox.MboxrdStorageWriter(“D:\Path\out.mbox”, False)
Email.Storage.MailboxConverter.ConvertPersonalStorageToMbox(ost, writer, Nothing)

This code will create the output file “out.mbox” with 0 bytes length and will not write the contents to the output file until we use:
writer.Dispose
or we close the form or app!

Is that normal and expected?

Hello,
You can test it with any .PST file, not a big issue since writer.Dispose or this code ( Using / End Using ) will fix it:

Dim ost As Email.Storage.Pst.PersonalStorage = Email.Storage.Pst.PersonalStorage.FromFile(ofd.FileName, False)
Using writer As New Email.Storage.Mbox.MboxrdStorageWriter(“D:\out.mbox”, False)
Email.Storage.MailboxConverter.ConvertPersonalStorageToMbox(ost, writer, Nothing)
End Using
