View Full Version : DBX Files

Outlook Express saves messages as dbx files. How do I reopen them once they
have been archived? Using OE doesn't work. I need access to a couple of
messages I received toward the end of 2003 and since I archived them, I
can't read them.
TIA,
Terry

You need to IMPORT the file which contains the messages you want from within
OE
