Is there anyway I can unpack or read .DBX files? I like to save all
newsgroup files which I have read. It looks like whenever I am in a
Newsgroup and download postings they are stored in a .DBX file. Thanks Ray

Try DBXtract

the .dbx format is proprietary to Microsoft
the only non-Microsoft software I've encountered that reads it are:

dbx Extract
ForKeeps

dbx Extract is the one that more people will be familiar with
and is intended more for extracting individual messages
at least it was back when I tried it

ForKeeps can read all of the messages in multiple .dbx files
( as well as being able to read files in other formats )
and extract them to its own relational database files
in which individual messages can be sorted and manipulated

as to which is more appropriate...
it depends on how many messages per newsgroup
you want to retain

dbx Extract allows you to extract individual messages
whereas ForKeeps will extract the messages, and organize them
for future use...

obviously I like ForKeeps

so I think I better make it clear that I have no connection
with the developers of ForKeeps except as a satisfied customer

it was the only app available when I was trying to organise
a ridiculous number of usenet postings taken from multiple
..dbx files and as far as I know it remains the only one of its kind

As far as I could see, mike's mum is his dad and vica versa, well I was
stood next to them

Hi,

I offer next programs:
OE-Mail Recovery - dbx viewer and extractor program.
Easy Outlook Express Repair - dbx extract tool.

OE-Mail Recovery is more preferable to use.

Regards.
