I urgently need to open DBX file.  But when i try to open it with the help of Outlook Express this message pops up, Message Could Not Be Opened From Outbox Folder


Can anyone advise what could have caused this error?

You have apparent dbx file corruption. Move most of your messages out of the Inbox and then create new Outbox and Sent Items folders after you move any messages you wish to save to a local folder you create.

Welcome to HP Support Forum. Outlook is a product from Microsoft. I don't know which version do you use. Please try
