Chaim,

I was thinking about using some of the code and documentation available at http://oedbx.aroh.de/ to move my OE message store into a dbf. I haven't gotten a start on the project though. There is also another third party program that can extract the messages, but I can't find a link to it or remember the name of it. I think I got to it doing a google search on: dbx outlook express

>Is it possible to export email messages from Outlook Express? I know OE cannot be automated, but is there any way to get the messages out? (I want to store them in a database.)
> I was thinking of 2 possible approaches:
> 1. hack the .MBX file
> 2. use Outlook to grab the OutlookExpress messages and then use automation to get the message via Outlook.
>
> Is either approach feasible? Or is there a more straightforward way to do this?
