Microsoft Outlook Express is an Email and News client. It is included with MS Windows and few Internet Explorer versions. Using MS Outlook Express we can create and use multiple email accounts in a single window. It uses POP, IMAP & HTTP as incoming email server protocols to download emails and SMTP server protocol to process outgoing mails. MS Outlook Express use .dbx files to store the data. Outlook Express will not store its entire attributes data in a single .dbx file instead it use individual file for each attribute like for Inbox data is stored in Inbox.dbx file and Sent Items data is stored in Sent Items.dbx file. In turn the collection of all .dbx file for each email account stores in another file folder along with the settings. What happen if the .dbx file gets corrupted or damaged? The entire data stored in that particular .dbx file and the settings for that email identity may be lost. How does a .dbx file corrupt or delete?

Instead they read the content of the .dbx file and create another copy. These newly created files are in .eml file format which you can later easily import back to your MS Outlook Express with all the settings and emails. These applications recover emails along with the header which helps a lot for identification. No need to worry if you don’t know the destination of the .dbx file in your system, these applications has got a search option using which you can easily identify and recover the .dbx file.
