MailBox Data Recovery


Email is the number one computer application today, but there is often little attention paid to backing up and preparing for data loss, which can ultimately result in a serious recovery problem. Most email programs provide little or no assistance with these tasks, placing the onus on the user. In preparing for data loss, don't forget the often-overlooked account settings, address books, filtering rules, and passwords.

Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express are the most widely used email programs today, and thus often require specialised data recovery services. While Outlook Express’s .dbx files are relatively safe for recovery purposes, Outlook .pst data files are complex, and seemingly trivial damage can sometimes render them irreparable. Many people tend to store a few years' worth of email data, with attachments, in a .pst file. This is large-scale data storage; a purpose for which .pst files were never designed. At MVI Data Recovery, we provide advanced contact or address book and inbox recovery alongside comprehensive file conversion, to ensure that your mail remains a certifiable record of your personal and business communications.

We offer:
•  EDB to PST conversion, which involves extracting mailboxes from the EDB file and
converting them into Personal File folders.
•  OST to PST conversion, which involves extracting mailboxes from Outlook Express so        Outlook can import it to the PST.

You can use one of the following methods to manage the size of your .pst files:

•    Use multiple .pst files
•    Use the archive feature
•    Save attachments and delete them from messages

Microsoft provides a utility called the Inbox Repair Tool that can be used to undelete or restore and repair data from a corrupted Outlook .pst file. If only the file's header is damaged, then the Inbox Repair Tool should have no trouble recovering the entire file. However, the tool deletes anything within the file that it doesn't understand, so if data has actually been corrupted, then some or all of the file's contents could be lost.

Mail recovery for Outlook Express .dbx files is easier to pursue, as they store information in plain text, which means that the files can be opened in notepad and the text copied to another file, as a last resort. The Folders.dbx file is an index file that may be deleted if it becomes corrupted, as it is recreated dynamically. Note, however, that it stores newsgroup subscriptions, which will be lost when you delete the file.


Should you be experiencing data loss in your MS Outlook Express mailbox - whether it pertains to lost passwords, key contacts in an address book or corrupt files - simply contact us for a free data recovery assessment. We perform all versions of Outlook Express recovery, from 2000 and 2003 up to date, and ensure that recovering email, VBA or .pst files is a simple and efficient process.
