Please check the Outlook Express data folder (the folder you’re extracting the file to), just after the Extract command completes but before you restart Outlook Express. Make sure the Sent Items.dbx file is there and has correct size (it should be pretty big, probably hundreds of MB) and e.g. back it up somewhere so you can play it with more easily (I mean restore etc.).

I’m now in the mountains (connecting via weak wireless link) but I should be in civilization tomorrow evening so I’ll write more.

Thanks Vlk. :slight_smile:
