    My laptop asked me if I wanted to compress OE files, I clicked yes. As a result of this the next time I opened OE one of my folders was missing. I found the folder using the search option and downloaded DBXTriever to enable me to read the .DBX files.
    Unfortunately when I tried this the software is telling me it's an unrecognised format..... There's 12 months worth of "work related" e-mail in there that I can't access.. any ideas please

    This is long and a bit complicated - but worth the effort.

    All e-mail items may be missing when you start Outlook Express 6.0 Service Pack 1 or Outlook Express 6.0 Service Pack 2
