I backed up my Outlook Express inbox on a CD but don't
seem to have any files except DBX files. I can't now
copy them back into my inbox. Is there a way I can get
the messages back into my inbox? Thanks
 
Salit,
The info on the URL's I am providing will give you all the
instructions you need..

Click to expand...

Put them in a folder of their own on the hard drive.
Remove the Read Only attribute.
Use OE's File | Import | Messages.
