Thanks for all the helpful replies. I'm an email pack-rat...got stuff going
back years. Just trying to clean out my store folder but save old messages,
just in case.

If you drag the messages back into OE, then they will have the original
dates. The dates you are seeing are the dates the extracted files were
extracted.

Hi...

I've been wanting to extract messages from OE6 so that I could archive
them and retrieve them if necessary. My store folder is getting very
full.

DBXtract works fine, except the original dates of the messages are not
shown...only the date they were extracted. That date appears under both
the create and modified column. That's very unhandy if you want to track
down a message by date. You have to open a message to see the original
date.

Is there any program that will show the original sent or received dates
on the extracted eml files in a file browser.?

Thanks.
