How To Recover Email From A Corrupted Inbox.dbx File?
3 Answers
I can not access my inbox within Outlook Express. I have changed the inbox.dbx file to inbox.old and launched OE. This created a new inbox.dbx file and I was able to access my inbox. Next, I copied the old file back replacing the new inbox.dbx file. Again I was not able to access the inbox or see any of the emails. The error number received is 0x800c0131. I now have it set back up with a new .dbx file so we can receive the new email. What I need to know is if there is anyway to access the email from the old inbox.dbx file.

Probably a long shot but . . .
. . . since your problem is probably caused by the excessive size of Inbox.dbx, try compacting the folder before opening it. With a bit of luck that will bring it back within the size limits for Outlook Express.
