I have upgraded my client's laptop from Windows XP to 7. I neglected to backup Outlook Express! However, the .dbx files are all in the Application data folder that I did back up! However, when I choose Import in Thunderbird, there is nothing to import from! Is there some way I can manually open the dbx folders and get Thunderbird to recognise them?

Thankyou for the answers. I did try the free dbx conversion tool but I'm not good with coding. I have got a test machine with xp on, and I have pointed to Application Data/Identities?{GUID} as the message store location in Outlook Express, but there is nothing in that folder, hence no messages appear. What is interesting though, is I can view those files in W7 when I choose to View Hidden Operating System files!

I found this link http://www.oemailrecovery.com/outlook-express-recovery.html Maybe that can help you.

Then there is an add-on to TbirdImportExportTools that can import all .eml files in a directory and its subdirectories.
