Well i dont live in the USA, so DMCA is irrelevent (for now, till 'they' bully our laws to match).

Anyway, these are NOT anti copying measures at all, merely an undocumented format, so I very much doubt DMCA has anything to say on the matter.  DMCA is all about intentional anti-copying mechanisms, of which PST isn't an example.

Besides, you're not going to get sued for converting your email.

Its all just bullshit anyway.
