the .dbx files contain the mail messages. you could use a utility called
dbxtract to extract the individual messages.
google for dbxtract. i do not have a working url for it.

i would be willing to extract the messages for you and send you back the
individual messages in a zip file that you could then use.
if you would like me to extract the messages for you contact me offlist.
your e-mail address is whitelisted so it should not bounce.
