We encountered this a year or so ago. The “new Outlook”, as Microsoft terms it, is essentially a browser shell presenting the web version, so it is missing most, if not all, of the functionality that is missing from the web version. That includes the ability to create PST. I’m still using the old version which is a traditional desktop application. Since that time, I have had a switch in the upper right of the application that I can use to “try the new Outlook”. I tried it briefly before switching back. In my applications list, I have two Outlook entries: Outlook (new) and Outlook (classic). The classic version is the one we want.

Good to hear that pst functionality is at least coming. There was a lot I didn’t like about new Outlook so I am not looking forward to the day when they do away with the classic version. Hopefully more of the classic functionality will find its way into new Outlook.

Yes, I had to do what Skip did to export a donor's email.
Apparently .pst export function is "upcoming" in New Outlook (as of May 2024): https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com/forum/all/no-import-and-export-app-in-both-the-new-and/f6d28d8c-7bed-4b39-bf54-c369c797576c
